Generally a bad pressure sensor will show up as hesitation. Most noticable is the 3800 RPM hesitiation.

As shown in the factory service manual, the pressure sensor is located on the passenger shock tower. It's a rectangular box wth a vacuum line attached. To fix it, replace it.

Also, please don't make multiple posts to get your ideas accross. If you count to 10 before you hit the "Post" button you'll probably realise you forgot something. You can also go back and edit your posts for a few minutes after the post is made.
