Re: UNABLE TO START

I'm watching this thread closely, because I've been having the same problems. My car wont start and when I brought it in to the mechanic they said it was the distributor. I got it fixed, but one day ;later it wouldn't start again. So I had it brought back. They changed the spark plugs and it worked ...

Re: Grls car grrrrr

This is the worst. Someone online I didn't even know asked me what car I drive. I told him a Precidia. He's like Mazda?. I say yes. He's said "thats a girls car" Then asks why I bought a girls car and asks if I'm gay. :laugh:

Firing order....

Hey guys, I just took out all my spark plug wires to put new ones on. Only thing I forgot was where they go again. :roll:

Does anyone know the correct order to put them back on?

Thanks,

Re: What would you do in my situation should I cut my loss?

I thought about taking it to Mazda themselves to fix it. I talked to this new guy at my work and his dad owns a shop. So hes nice enough to get it towed in for me and he's got all the right diagnosis equipment. I even tried to jumper TEN and GND but the engine light just went out, it didn't flash or ...

Re: What would you do in my situation should I cut my loss?

I did post here first. Are you talking about used distributors? I need to go through a few? I don't get what ya mean man. I was also told here that I should buy the car even though it had 300k. I'm just not having any luck with this car whatsoever.

Any cheap places to find MX-3 factory service manuals?

I just called my local Mazda dealer. They said it would cost me about $180 for a factory service manual which tells everything about the car. Canadian Tire doesn't have any Chilton or Haynes manuals for the MX-3. I'm looking at getting both the complete service manual and one of the DIY manuals ...
