Since I'm in Quebec and your in N.S. shipping might not be too bad... I've got a 96 GS with A/C that is becoming a non A/C car soon, I already have the 93 PGT belt. I'll keep everything for you if you want. Mine needs to be re-filled, but all the parts are working A OK!

Keep me posted.

Either a ribbed intake hose leak or she needs a good TPS adjustment.

The "hissing" you hear is most probably the air bypass on the TB (idle control screw on the top right of the TB).

Turbo oil cooled?.....could be coming from the turbo itself...now if you where sucking enough oil from the intake man. to come out the tailpipe, it should run so crappy you'd know right away.

You can't powdercoat headers...the temps would melt it off, it's like a colorred glass sprayed on (it sticks to metal parts because of a static electricity charge added to the powder by the spray gun) and the cured in a high temp oven. Go with ceramic coating, it keeps most of the heat "in" the ...

Don't take the MSD out of the equation right away. They are plagued with problems on guys running them on B and F-bodies with the LT1. We had our fare share of crapped out units showing your exact symptoms on the 9C1 board. Swap in a known good disty and take it from there. Those dammed MSD's seem ...

I tottaly love the hooker aerochambe sound!!!...real deep, and just a hint of raspiness, like those V-12 Ferrari's...That and I have yet to see someone with them on a car. I had them on my 9C1 Caprice, they sound scary on a dual exhaust LT1, and I'm very suprised of the tone they get on the K8....I ...

Sounds "ferariish"...I freekin' love it!....I had 2 of them, never used, left over from my 9C1 caprice....BUT......


HOLLY DRONE BATMAN!!!....between 2-3k, drones alot in the car...I can live with it though!!

I worry about the sound police a little, we'll see!

But I recomend them in a heartbeat ...

How would the TPS affect timming?? (sorry, I'm all new to mazda's, coming from an LT1 350...)

My car idled like crap. got tired of it, cleaned out the TB, re-did intake, checked vacuums, it helped, but it still stalled and no balls, popping exhaust ect...

After I instaled everything bach, I ...

How much do front bearings go for???, I need a front left one.

Roger that Charlie!!

lol, read ya loud and clear!

At worst, I'll stop by Mazda and get a dynamic diagnostic read-out taken, that should tell me what it does when the problems show up, probably the last option.

Thanx alot Blue!!!

I'll keep ya posted.

Now, if YOU need a hand on the other hand ...

Will do Blue!!

If I can't find anything wrong there either, would you mind taking a look for me??

I'll keep you posted, time to wrench some more!


Much appreciated!!!! Wish me luck!

Ok, so....Checked all vacuums, no apprearent leaks. Changed plugs, cleaned K&N filter, changed oil, cleaned out TB.

Car starts fine, But idle is different everytime I step on the clutch once warm, it idles high or real low.

Car is underpowerred. Until the VRIS opens, it feels sluggish and the ...

Regarding the vale cover leaking...some of the plugs had some oil on them when I removed them. Nothing to indicate oil in the combustion chambers, all the tips where good. I guess there is a gasket that seals the plug acess tubes??...could it be the cause of my bad idle/bubbling exhaust???

It ...

Thanx alot guys!!

Blue, Ièll be in touch, if you don't mind. I'm doing the plugs tonight, TB clean out tomorrow and I'll take it from there. Today coming home from work, it felt like I had a miss...car seems very underpowerred under 4k rpm, then POW! jumps to life. Might be a bad wire or plug. I'll ...
