My Vans VMP SND manifold pressure sender has 4 wires that assumes I'm connecting it to a MAP gauge. I understand the standard power and ground connections (red and black) are for 12V and ground. What I don't understand is which of the other two wires (green, white) goes to the EMS pin for MAP, and what I do with the 4th wire. Thanks in advance.

Andy,
We only support our own manifold pressure sender, and it has only 3 wires. It's also 5V, not 12V. You should have received one in your engine kit.

Unfortunately for me, I guess, I bought the Vans FWF kit and installed their MAP sensor. Then, I went and purchased everything in the Dynon kit except the MAP sensor because I assumed the MAP sensor from Vans would be usable with the D-180. So my takeaway here is that the Vans MAP sensor is totally incompatible with the D-180?
