Re: A/C issues

It's not in there, I checked there first. I also have a Chiltons manual for my car and it's not in there as well. A lot of the information I find says something about it's not supported by self-repair manuals and is to be done by EPA certified (I think that was the name) mechanics only.

A/C issues

Okay so I've been having issues with my A/C clutch not engaging on my 92 mx-3 GS and my brother said he changed the clutch before on it but used one from a straight 4 mx-3. It got to the point where he would have to lay down and hit it (car on and ac on) with a ratchet for it to engage but now it do...

[WTB]92 GS Door panels

I'm looking specifically only for the drivers side interior door handle plastic portion and window control switch (the whole thing included the plastic part that you put your hand on as well) but would be interested in seeing if someone had both door panels for sale? If shipping them becomes to much...

Re: Sub question

Well, the alternator was just exchanged under lifetime warranty (it's covered in oil so there is definitely a different issue that could of caused it to die) and I never did try to test it without the system being on though.

Re: Sub question

What would cause the crashing of these alternators then? My charge light will pop on for about 1-4 minutes, then shut off and come back on shortly after. When it goes on, I can see the headlights dim down a small bit and the dash also.

Re: Sub question

Oh okay. Would you happen to know what I should check in order to tell what is killing my alternator repeatedly?

Sub question

Okay, I have a 750 Watt Amp and 2 10' subs in my car, and this is going to be the near 6th time I (and my brother which is the previous owner) have to replace the alternator in this car and I'm getting sick of it. I've heard that buying a farad capacitor can solve the issue, but what size would I ne...

Re: Throttle body number...

Is there any place where I can look up what vehicle this throttle body would fit exactly too? So I can tell people what cars it would fit onto rather then trying to rely on them already knowing? It's directly off a 1992 Mazda MX-3 GS

Throttle body number...

Does anyone know what number on the throttle body is considered to be a part number? I wanted to sell this damn thing on Ebay and it has a catalog but needs a part number and i don't know which one it is...

Re: Testing throttle sensor/ISC

Yeah looks like my ISC is reading a good Ohm. Is there a measurement of Ohm specs for the TPS? If not, how do I test one that isn't in a vehicle right now and make sure it works?

Testing throttle sensor/ISC

Ok so I pulled a throttle body with the ISC and TPS still attached from the junkyard and tried using the manual and used an Ohm reader to test them and the ISC tested out a small bit above the specs of normality but my issue is that no matter which I test (I tested mine on my car awhile ago) the tes...

Re: Need advice

Well...turned out it was a faulty spark plug wire (found out it was sparking out the side of the wire instead of on top the plug).

Re: Need advice

The reason I skipped to fuel pressure is because I've explored my options at the intake and Maf sensor and nothing seems to affect the issue. The Maf is plugged in and working and the intake shows no sign off leaks or issues.
