Just got off the phone with my mechanic who is trying to get the car to pass emissions. He says the MPC Sensor is bad and he is having trouble locating one. I took a quick look at Pelican and their price is $975 or so. Mechanic suggested going to carburation, but I am leaning on keeping the car original if at all possible.
Help! I would appreciate any and all suggestions and ideas. Thanks! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

And as being discussed in another thread, if your MPS does turn out to be bad, one alternative is to go with a Megasquirt replacement ECU, which will replace the MPS with a solid state sensor. This may be more DIY than you intend to do, and I'll bet more than your mechanic can handle if he's pushing carbs. Just switching to carbs and doing nothing else will kill your gas mileage (15-20mpg is normal).
