Thanks for the fuel filter info :) im replacing mine next week after the current tank of gas/paint thinner mix burns off. I also experience some issues when starting, fel liek fuel preasure took a little bit to build up where it should be. Good to hear you got it running right! Now wish me luck :lol:

Ya the ZE make the extra power over the DE in the top end, And thats the place you wanna stay away from until your clutch is good to go. Once you clutch is broken in try drivign it a litthe harder and a little higher up in the rev range. Also what ecu are you using? i hear the vris point and alot to...

You may have a short in the fan system causing an excesive drain on the altnator. This inturn makes the engine idle lower and and vibrate more. This will make any worn out part (ie:your ac clutch plate) rattle and vibrate. Personally if you dont use a/c pull the compressor, pull all the lines, pull ...

Isnt that just a standard selinoid?

I think the ranger sensor is teh same as well....

For that matter im willing to be that 90% of all o2 sensors are the same.

have you tried the JE50 vaf with the 2.5l injectors?

Went looking for a new o2 sensor....well i guess i gotta replace both. But no one list them, they say i gotta goto mazda for one... Well i dont feel like taking that shot in the a-- so i need to know if the stock o2 sensor is just a standard 4 wire o2 sensor. if so what is stoping me from getting a ...

Fine, do a compression test and a leak down test.

But if the bubbles dont stop.......

As of today i have blacklisted NAPA. They are offically 100% more expencive for every part i called abotu since i got my mx3!

Will never give them my money ever again.

Jesus! that uber $$$ for kyb gr2's.....Espically since there stock replacement at best.

1st off, lower CCA's does not mean you can't start your car off it. You can start your car just fine on a 12v motorcylce battery if you wanted to. The only thing more CCA's is going to help is if you have a big stereo or something of the like, you can keep it on longer with the car OFF. 2nd, from p...

Are there any other large mx3 fourms?
