Do you know anyone that owns a SERT and cables that can be hooked up to a laptop?&nbsp\\;The MAP sensor (as well as all the sendors) is fairly easy to trouble shoot with keys to the kingdom.

There is a table that Harley elected to hide from you that may be a fall back lookup table that allows the bike to drive OK without a healthy MAP sensor.&nbsp\\;I would think a CEL would come on if that was the case. P0106 p0107 and p0108 are the MAP failure codes.

A true MAP sensor failure is fairly major. Some cars now have backup Alpha-N maps as backup but I dought Harley does this. Some MAF cars even have maps for all three types of fueling and average the three calculations.&nbsp\\;Way cool stuff.

I'll be in the dyno room all day Thursday so Friday would be good for me, but I have to tell you I'm baffled with your flooding problem....we might stumble on something though if we talk.
