My 4.0 starts up fine and then goes into a rough idle. I have cleaned the original TPS sensor and swapped it with another used one. The other thing that is connected to the throttle body i have also swapped with another used one(the one where the little square fits into the grooved plastic Im assuming its hooked to the butterfly). I could not find a map sensor to swap out but tried cleaning inside that, could that be the problem? I go thorugh ridiculous amounts of gas when the check engine light finally does come on, but then i just pull the negative battery cable, reset the computer and it runs with no engine light for a while. Everything got submerged in water. I have checked connections and cleaned them out and vacuum lines. A computer hooked up to it said Fuel system lean at bank 1, and the turn key method I believe came up with a 25 code. Please give me all possible ideas because I am running out of them and gettin ready to get rid of this thing if I can't trouble shoot it, I've spent weeks!

That's the MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) SENSOR. It senses intake manifold vacuum, and the ECU uses that, along with other inputs, to calculate F/A ratio, and adjust fuel injector pulse duration.

Thanks, my map is on the throttle body and i cant seem to find a used one or that would have been changed already. I will also try the temp control.
