After looking I only have one clip there but it looks like there's 3 slots there I know the vtcs would go there but what about the 3rd one? Cruise control?

I switched back the vac lines to the original paths and sprayed out both male and female sides of the 2 sensors with MAF cleaner just in case there was poop in there.
I also open/closed (or slammed
) the rod that controls the butterflies in the manifold a few times in case there was poop in there too.
So far so good, I drove about 10 miles with no CEL.

Yours only has a sensor with a white plug, the MP3 proteges did not have VTCS flaps. The bracket for the sensors has provisions for 3 sensors, I relocated my fuel pressure sensor onto that same bracket.

Replace the sensors, they are probably bad.

Ok So I was reading through this and a simliar thread on DFW mazdas, I have the same problem, Code P2009, and It is giving me a VERY rough idle at times, mainly in the heat. or rather extreme heat being in texas. Anyway, do any of these https://www.amazon.com/dp/ (commissions earned) look like the proper sensor? I would really rather not take it to the shop or mazda for the part. (especially since VW just charged my friend $290 to fix a hose in his radiator)
