Getting a lean code and thinking it's the MAP sensor. Check engine light blinks when I accelerate.

Hi,

If the light flashes, it most likely has a misfire. If you are getting a lean mixture, the first things to check are fuel pressure and an engine vacuum leak. Here are two links that explain how to do it:

As far as the MAP, I attached a pic below showing it. Make sure the vacuum hoses are not damaged to it.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
