Default Question on the LT1
A friend of mine has a 97 Firebird Formula and he broke a harness on something on the passenger side of his engine, behind the throttle body. He said it's black, on top of the intake, with a wiring harness (which is what he broke) and it's about one inch by three inches. We couldn't think of what is was, nor could we find it in our Haynes manuals. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks-Jon

Alright he said he knew what that was (I'm an LS1 guy, don't know as much about the LT1) Thanks a lot!

If it's bolted to the top of the intake it's the map. If it's on the side of the intake it's the EVAP.

the little catch/retainer clip on the green connector on mine is broken. Its plugged in and always stayed that way but, the pins themselves are all thats keeping it plugged in. hehe... haha.. . need to grab one from a local junk yard or something someday.

Mine was perfectly fine, til I lent my car to my friend when I went to japan on deployment. Got back and the damned thing was broken. Yeah, haven't had a broken map sensor yet though.

I think the top dash pad is almost as common. I know mine is shot to hell.
