Hi all, Everything started a few weeks ago. My car was stalling on hot idle, specially if i come to a stop in traffic lights, or hit the gas suddenly. When i checked to a mechanic, he said my radiator cap was not keeping the pressure inside and the coolant was boiling. He changed it and it worked normal for 3-4 days, but again started.. But this time i had a CEL. with code Barometric Pressure Error. The mechanic removed the connector from MAP sensor and everything seems fine. I am not in US so i have to wait for new map sensor for a few weeks. Anyway.. in first week car was running great (except because of CEL it wasnt going up from 4000 rpm.) But when the weather gets cold.. in cold start i had sm troubles. After i start the car, if i wont hit the gas and keep the rpm over 2000.. it goes down to zero,and at the same time some strange noises comes from the exhaust like little exlosions in old cars..And every part of the car shakes like theres a misfire in engine. But after running like this 4-5 mins.. suddenly everything turns to normal. And then all day i can use the car without any problem. (By the way i reconnected MAP sensor back after this issue started) I only have 12-14 codes in CEL (and i think 14 is remaining from the time i removed MAP sensor) Any ideas might be helpful. What can be go wrong if i drive the car without MAP sensor for a while except low mileage. PS: Mine is 97 Strat EL V6 2.5L
