    Gday Mate, I have some simple things to do which you may have already done. Remolve the ENG COMP fusible link from the fusible link housing under the bonnet near the relays for 10 seconds and run the motor at 3000rpm for 10 seconds and check the hose for cracks which run to the MAP sensor. Hope this helps.

    Make sure the reg wire from the alternator is connected properly to the pos on the battery.
