Colbolt 2-bar map sensor install?
Colbolt 2-bar map sensor install? HI
I recieved the Colbolt map sensor part # ( 12580698)
today. I want to uses this 2-bar map sensor to be able to tune my car SD. It looks very small, not that that matters, but the nipple that conetcs to either a vac-boost line or to push into a LS1 intake looks small,
How do i install this sensor?
Do i pull out my stock one out and install this one into the same port on the back of my intake, where my stock sensor is?
I hope i ordered the right sensor.
Please let me know
thank you
Walter

Yes that is the correct PN same one I am using for my 2 bar set up and all you do is remove your old one and you'll have to trim a bit off the new one as it is too wide be carful and grind a bit of the left side of it off so it will fit in the stock location once done it will snuggly fit in stock location HTH
Hi Bandit
What am i trimming ?, the colbolt sensor i am looking at has like molded plastic clips on each side of it , they look like for mounting it , is this what i trim off?
Please let me know

OK
Its in.
not too bad to do , tore up my arm a little,
But now that its in , and reading my interceptor scan gauge, i dont see boost being read, but my autometer vac/boost gauge it reading 0-10 PSI.
I guess it wont read boost until i have the car tuned S/D?
does anyone know?

I'd pick up a new silicone grommet for the sensor if yours did not come with one. I purchased mine for about $5.00 and when I took the old map sensor out I was not able to reuse the old one. Also the Wires to the map sensor are pretty tight from the factory, the new sensor is about 1/4 -3/8" shorter, putting that much more stree on the wires. You can free them up a little just follow them back and get any gains in lenght where ever possible
OK 2002WS-6
Where can i get a new silicone grommet for the sensor, no mine did not come with one i had to reuse my old one and i think its a little lose now.
I cant believe they did not supply the new map sensor with a new silicone grommet,

I'm about to purchase it and just want verification...

Absolutely sure it is a 2.0....I saw the Delphi engineering drawing.

Are you talking about this one:
http://www.powerandsignal.com/docs/P...s/09350899.pdf
(Got that from this thread )
If so, how can you be sure that that is the correct part reference? Where can you verify that Delphi 09350899 is GM 12580698?
I went ahead and ordered it, but if there is nothing that references those 2 part #'s then I will do a bench test to verify myself I guess...

Same kPa spec but I don't remember if it is the same part number. A Delphi engineer sent it to me in an email with a cross reference to the Cobalt sensor.....which is a BAP sensor not a MAP sensor BTW.....that's what causes all of the confusion since the Cobalt uses a 2.5 bar Map sensor and a 2.0 bar bap sensor. Can't use a Cobalt 2.5 map sensor since it has other integrated funtions.
