i finally found out what is causing my throttle delay while driving in town from a stop.it is my map sensor.i found out by unplugging it and driving the car.i ran over 500 miles with it unplugged and the car runs with no hesitation and is actually faster with it unplugged.HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE ?

im assuming the map sensor is bad sending the ecu a bad signal resulting in making the car run lean and causing a delayed reading.but why would the car run great with it unplugged ? i would think the car would run really crappy with it unplugged.thoughts ?

edit;and yes,the one that sits in the intake manifold
