How much $ for a pressure sensor?

I need a new pressure sensor and I can't seem to find one. Where can I get one? And about how much is it gonna cost me? I'd rather not get a junk yard special.

I may be able to get them through Checker Auto Parts. I can price it and then I get an additional 25% off since I am an employee. Hold on, and I will get you a price.

It's actually a Boost pressure sensor on NA's I think, and a Atmospheric pressure sensor on turbo cars. Sounds backwards but I'm preaty sure that's how it is.

I'm preaty sure it's a "Boost Pressure Sensor" for a 91 NA.

Mine has a reading of 5 volts, according to the manual it should be in between 3.5-4 I believe. I accidently got some carb cleaner in it and ever since it has been acting up. At first I got a check engine code for it (1-3) then that went away. And now I have that damn 3800 rpm hesitation; I have avoided that damn hesitation untill this stupid sensor started acting up. Actually spraying in some of that damn carb cleaner is the root of this problem. I really wish I never used the CC; al least I only used about 1/10 of the can or who knows how many other problems I would have. I may have also blown out the lil pill that is supposed to be in the line. Do NA's have that lil pill? Because after I realized the CC got to the sensor I detached the line and blew through it to clear out all of the CC; but I may have blew out the pill in the process.

Yeah, I read the thread about Carb cleaner earlier, saw that it caused you some trouble. Sorry, It looks like I cant get the part. I may have to go into work and do some research on it. Let me know if you find it somewhere else.

I called mazdatrix and they told me that if I am no longer getting the bad pressure sensor code then mine must be fine. I thought that the factory ECU or CPU, which ever one does the diagnostics, was a lil on the iffy side; but if mazdatrix says so then I must believe. My car does not show any codes as of right now, so I wonder what I could of damaged with the CC that would give me that damn hesitation?

Least for the AFM your getting something. The N/A boost sensor isn't anything special.

actually if you need a new afm what you do is go to mazda dealer tell them you are having hesitation over 6k rpms. there is a tsb that says for that problem you need to replace the afm with another one from a different part seriers, i love alldata!
