Check for vacuum on the line that goes to the map sensor on the firewall.  If you feel vacuum then the MAP sensor is probabally bad.

Pull the vac line off the MAP and see if there is vac present.  If there is then the Map is most likely bad.  If there is not vac then you have a leak somewhere.

If you've disconnected the battery for  at least 5 minutes or grounded the leads and it comes back then you've got a problem someplace.

13 -     No difference recognized between the engine MAP reading and the barometric (atmosphere) pressure reading from start-up.

OBD-1 Codes are all the same.  Actually OBD-2 codes are the same until they went to P Codes which are of course different.

So, you've either got a vacuum line leak or your MAP is dead like oldjeep said.
