This does not surprise me. My map sensor went last month. It did not through a check engine light, just a code. But now I know why my boost is down and the truck just is not running as hard as it did.
I just about fell over when I found out that this sensor is $150 +.
After talking to a local shop he said, why don't you try a sensor for a 6.0 instead. they are about 1/2 the cost and will take a lot more boost. So he sold me a sensor and I bought a pig tail from ford. All I got to do is to wire it in.
So with all that said here is my question.
Has any one done this. And will this 6.0 sensor hold up better to higher boost then the 7.3 map sensor. I am going to wire it in this week.
Only time will tell.
