Thread: 2000 gtp reading 98 on barametric and starts and dies

It runs for about 15 sec before it dies but if i keep on the throtal it will keep running aslong as it dtays abouve 4 grand or so. When ut died the first time i pulled up to a gas station and put it in reverse and it just died but we discovered kastnight that if we jumped two of the wiers on the plug for map sensore that it would run on its own it ran good for a couple min then started acting like it was chugging then died and now all it wants to do is start and die agine. My friend who is a macanic at a local car dealership is thinking it might be the computer after all the checking and testing buy we are going to try one more thing but its got bolth of us bafled so anyother advice or ideas to try would be great
