Re: Strange Voltage at Coil Pos (+) HEI Mod w/ EXT Coil
Hello I have this exact problem too. The tach jumping I mean. I have done the HEI mod and it worked perfectly for a while. But my biggest problem with it is that sometimes it wont start. Usually after standing for a few days it won't start even if I charge it. Then maybe it won't start every day for...

Hi. I checked for leaks and i did not find any. Then I checked once more with the same results. What and where is the sir sensor? how do I check if it is bad? I might be wrong but I think the thing with the idle almost just happens when I bring the car to a stop. At a light or parking. But the engin...

High idle then suddenly dies

Re: my mx smells like ****
I have tested emissions and it was fine. When friends drive behind me they say that they can smell it inside their cars. I thought 1000$ was quite expensive. Maybe Mazda tried to ripp me off. If I buy a high flow cat thingy, will I still be able to pass emissions? because a friend of mine bought one...

my mx smells like ****
Hello
Can anyone tell why my exhaust smells like ****.
espacially when I'm in reverse.
I have a custom cat-back system by the way.
Could it be a clogged cat converter?
Odds![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
