So, got a scanner up there. Showed up as P0107, the MAP sensor was bad. Got the car towed to a nearby AutoZone, confirmed it with their scanner. Replaced the sensor, erased the code, and it still wont start. Gonna head back up tomorrow and trouble shoot.

I think it is fuel related now...

i had a camaro back in my younger years, after countless sensors, and electrical parts that the scanner said were not working, it ended up being the fuel pump...

[Ridge]

I thought about that, too. But when I turn the key to On, I hear the fuel pump kick in.

doesn't mean the sock filter isnt' clogged up

Is there a master relay that could be messing up like on some older Honda's?

Or perhaps the grounds? Funny stuff always happens when grounds get loose.

[Ridge]

Checked the relays, fuses and ground wires. Everything is intact.

Fuel filter is still flowing, as I can smell fuel in the engine bay when attempting to start the car. I'm fairly certain if there is a fuel problem, it is at the injector rail on the engine...

My goodness, U-Haul in Westminster wants $103 to rent a tow dolly for 1 day!!!

One in Aurora wants $45

Is the map sensor getting the required voltage from the harnes? It should have 5(ish) volts going to it. If it doesn't, that same 5volt supply may be being interuppted by some other sensor up the line. The p0107 code may have just been the first thing the computer saw, and thats why it threw the code.
