Re: Manual Transmision

The Miata doesn't have one? Or is it that it won't fit?

Re: VICS and Idle

Thanks Daninski but your asking for something way above my computers ability. This damn thing was the first computer ever built :lol: If it is a 1.6L DOHC from any Mazda model it will have one.

Re: Strange Noise

OK, I disconnected the resonator, although it did not affect the idle it did seem to make the engine sound better with slightly better throttle response. But that may be me just hoping too hard! :lol:

Re: VICS and Idle

Do they go bad that frequently? When I start the engine cold, it idles high and slowly comes down as the engine warms up. Doesn't that mean it is working or is it the coolant sensor part of it that goes bad?

Re: VICS and Idle

I just had Autozone test them but I was standing on the brakes with the a/c full blast, and it still checked good.

I will add a few more grounds and let you know!

Thanks

Horsepower

I am looking to get more horsepower out of my 94 1.6 DOCH. Without an engine swap or a total rebuild, how can I get 40 to 50 more ponies? Is it even possible?

Re: VICS and Idle

VICS and Idle

I have a 94 1.6L DOCH. I am looking for a VICS solenoid if someone would point me in the right direction. Also, I have been all over this site trying to find an answer to the Idle issue. That is the Idle drops really low when any electrical load is on.(i.e. brakes, a/c, defroster, power windows, ect...
