Has anyone noticed any drop in fuel economy since they changed all of americas fuel to ethenol? I think maybe I'm just trippin like I'm placeboin lol..but I was thinking maybe that might had something to do with it. Have you changed oil recently..I know my 1st car I didn't change the oil and let it ...

I'm parting out my car soon..I had the cam shaft postion sensor and disty change out about 5000 miles ago. The sensor is 249 I believe from mazda (only place you can get one) if you're looking to save yourself some money I could sell them to you and save ya some bucks :-). Email or pm me and lemme k...

I had the same thing happen to me..one thing I want to point out is that your rpm gauge is activated by how many times your disty is outputing per min..if your rpms are dropping to 0 and you're still moving then your engine is not getting spark. I shelled out 350 I think to Mazda to have a brand new...

Hey yeah..thanks alot...I test drove my car right after and it seemed to run fine the entire 20mi. I drove it. I figure that it will start acting up eventually since I know that the disty in our cars are prone to failing. I better start saving for a new disty. Another thing I failed to mention was w...

I did do a search for this problem but I just wanted to make sure that my symtoms are normal for a bad dissty? So I was doing about 85mph on the highway in Dallas and then my rpms dropped to near 0 for a split second and the car jerked as it lost power...Now I know that my car couldn't of gone all t...

Hey man sorry to hear about your bad luck... Well my first MX-3 had a busted head gasket too. It does sound like it's you gasket. Does your car smoke white smoke at all or over heat??? If so these are really good signs that your car is having a head gasket problem. One thing you could try is somethi...

I don't even use my dimmer switch anymore besides just to sit in the dash so there won't be a void in the dash. Since I've gotten my indiglo gauges, I got a small piece of wire and ran it from the top right and botttem right pins from the connector switch and that makes all the lights default to ful...

Thought I might add that even after the $55 diagnosis and the $165 fuel pump... My car STILL runs like $hit. I'm so pissed-off at them for misdiagnosising my car. They had said my fuel pressure was nothing and that it was my fuel pump to blame. So I spent much of my time today replacing that and it ...

Hey Man I feel ya...Right now my car is given me $hit too...Everytime I hit the gas more than 20% it just stalls really low but doesn't die. After takin everyone's advice on here, replaceing an o2 sensor, and the fuel filter I thought well I'll just get it looked at by a real professional...they sai...

Hey Hank...Well the o2 sensor I replaced was a bosch 11027 part number. They had given me that one because they said it was a universal for the 92 model protege engine like groharlem had said. They were almost exactly $18 like he had said too.

The other nite I was out and some punk a$$ ****** pulled by me in a Hyndaia Tibiron GT, body kit and some twin exhast and started revin it. I thought I was about to get my A$$ handed to me. But I left his A$$ for $H!T right off the line. It was so worth it though seeing the look on his face after go...

I had a simular problem not long after gettin my MX...my clutch turned out to be split and there where pieces of it shreaded so that it was like the clutch was engaged at all times. I had a really hard time gettin it to my mechanic due to the fact there we soo many red lights. Oh yeah this all start...

Alright well it's been awhile since I've been albe to respond but I changed one of the o2 sensors (front side) and.... it DIDN'T HELP grrrr... nah jp but after that I thought I'd leave it up to a mechanic to diagnois it...funny thing was my next guess was the fuel pump and that was just what it was....

OK i've taken out my front o2 sensor and it was all croded and such but I also wanted to make sure that this was what was given me the problem so before I took it out I disconnnected the conncector and ran the engine and it ran just like it had been doing...Do you guys think that this would be an ad...

Yep thats part of your evap system...it's really just something to help out with the enviornment. When you shut off your engine it sends unused fuel vapors to the charcoal canister and holds them there until you start your car again and then it releases them back into the engine where they are burne...
