Clean up the throttle body, make sure the vacuum hoses are good, and the o-ring on the map sensor is good. If that don't work try replacing the map sensor.

Are you positive its a code 3?

Its either the MAP sensor or the MAP sensor wiring if its a code 3.
You have crome so you could easily datalog and verify if the ECU sees fluctuate manifold pressure, right?
Or do it the hard way and measure the MAP voltage going out to Ecu on D17.

Ok so Muckman if unplug my map sensor and nothing happens does that means it's bad... Because I've heard that code 3 is a wiring problem and code 5 is a map sensor
