    While replacing my valve cover gaskets on my 07 gp gt, I had to take off a bracket that has 2 pressure sensors on it. One was plugged in to the vacuum line that goes into the LIM (I believe, as it's just under the snout of the SC). The other pressure sensor didn't have anything hooked up to it. I didn't see any vacuum lines to it and I really don't know what to look for on where it should go so any help would be appreciated.

    P.S. Tried uploading a pic and it kept saying that it was too big, apparently a 10kb pic is too big? Idk.

    vac line only goes to the one sensor, the other just gets its plug to it.

    It sounds like you're talking about the MAP sensors



    There should be a line from the T on the lower intake manifold that goes to one of them, but the other is left without a vac line if I remember correctly.

    Correct, one is a 2 BAR map sensor the other is a BARO sensor with no vacuum line.
