MAP sensor

[George]

I've just about got the car back together and I'm not sure what's the best route for the hose that connects to the MAP sensor in the ECU?

I've currently got most of the wires going through the shifter gate but I don't think that will work for the pressure hose. What route have you guys used? The MS ecu is located in stock location in the glovebox. Thanks

I ran a vacuum line through the grommet in the firewall with the ABS wiring harness. Any grommet will do. I'm sure you can find something in the e24 that'll work.

Mine is run through the firewall grommet where the main harness drops into the glove box

Thanks guys. Just about got this thing back together.

Don't worry, I've got about 300mb of pics right now. I still need to pick some fire extinguishers before I attempt to start it.

Isn't that always a pleasant thought. Better safe than sorry is a good philosophy!

Fire extinguisher?

Whats going to catch on fire? Really.

When I first installed megasquirt and it took me two weeks to figure out why it wouldn't run right, all my hopes and dreams almost burnt to the ground....

I've replaced all the fuel lines as well as the fuel rail. Considering my father's L6 caught on fire due to a fuel leak (I was 4 at the time and remember when the smoke started coming through the dashbaord when we were on the freeway), its not all far fetched. Better safe than have the car start on fire and burn to the ground.
