Default Map sensor?

Ok so I recently rebuilt my head due to low compression. The car died before i even rebuilt the head and I just bought this car not too long ago so im trying to figure these things out.

The mechanic replaced the map sensor and it stopped dying/stalling/idling low/ misfiring for 3 days which was the longest its ever been without doing it!
Then all of a sudden it started again!!!!!!!!!!!
I changed the map sensor and this time it hasn't came off.
It dies at idle (if im lucky it'll stay at about 100 rpms at idle) it has a strong smell of gas coming out the exhaust I tried the zip tie and cleaning the iacv....
Anyone else have any solutions? no CEL no nothing????? Just those symptoms i said.

its probably really dirty injectors are really dirty fuel filter when's the last time you pulled your spark plugs and looked at them you may want to start with your spark plugs first then fuel filter then injectors... your spark plugs could have gotten dirty with the map sensor bad.. I bet you if you clear spark plugs your friend that they're very very black
