Default 91 TBI wont run with MAP hooked up!!??

Like the title says, it will not start with the vac line hooked up to the map sensor. It started losing power gradualy over the course of a week or so then refused to start one morning. So far I have replaced the cap and rotor, plugs n wires, and fuel filter. I am getting a good spray pattern out of the injectors. I don't know what I was thinking but I pulled the vac line off the map and it fired up, but has a hard time revving, so I replaced the map thinking I found the problem but it's still there. I am not getting any codes except for a map code after I unplugged it. I checked the timing while it was running w/o the map and its correct. I'm at a loss here, HELP!!! (Edit: It's a 91 Blazer 4.3 TBI with 98,000 miles, auto,4X4, A/C)

its possible you purchased a faulty map sensor..get another one(under warranty) check the vacuum line and make sure your plug in connection is good, possibly a bent prong
