cant remember what its called but its something in your tranny... sorry

i have noticed that since its been colder my car seems to be shifting better the only thing i can think of is that the gear oil is thickening up so maybe i do need to change it just a thought

if it revs to high for how fast you are going sounds like your clutch is slipping o2 sensor would account for bad fuel economy but wouldnt change the relation between rpms and mph... sorry

also if its a manual you should really look into a short shifter and some bronzeoil bushings to tighten it up

i have a 92 1.6 16v sohc should be the same in yours or you may have an 8v eighther way the engine really sucks if your looking for performance. but thier are a few things you can do. cold air intake, hotter plugs, bigger tb (thiers a swap list in the faq section), good set of wires, accel or msd co...

i cant get my hatch opened with the key or the lever by my seat does anyone know how i can get it open or what might be wrong

you may wanna check the relay

its a not an interfierence engine if thats what u wanna know the timing belt could break and you still wouldnt have valve to piston contact thats the great thing about mazda

thanks for all the replys but i really just need a cheap junkyard radiator they have some 323s and proteges in the lot i needed to know if they would fit.

check compression mine did the same thing when i first got it turned out to be cracked intake valve i replaced it and lapped all the valves runs great now except for a bad o2 sensor. one way to tell is to stand behind your car with it on and see if you smell raw fule. good luck

here is a link for a universal 4wire o2 sensor only $20 lookup how to splice it in and your set. good luck

i had the same problem with mine make sure it didnt come out of the back of your speedometer then check the drive gear in the tranny itself. the drive gear broke on mine it was a pita to fix cause it fell in the tranny its a $37 part from a mazda dealership. good luck
