map sensor on a 2 stroke

Post by redbulltbo »

Can anyone tell me if I can use a map sensor on a 2 stroke and if so how would I. I searched the forums and could not find any topics on this.

Thanks in advance, Tony

I don't see why not. There is still manifold vacuum on a two stroke engine between the reed valve and carb slide/TB butterfly. Like any single cylinder engine you'd likely have to run Alpha-n blending because of the on/off pulsation of the signal at lower RPM... and possible loss of MAP changes at higher throttle openings (reaching max KPA before reaching full throttle).
