The Mx-3 shall sit for 5 weeks...

[mor500589]

soooo the license is currently suspended due to unpaid tickets from last year and its going to be about 5 weeks till shes back on the road again. butttt i took her down the block today and she just doesnt seem right, its been a bout 3 weeks since shes seen asphalt and i started her and let it run for about15 minutes everyother day, i guess it just seems like theres something keeping it from running at full potential, any ideas on what i should do to prepare it for the next 5 weeks of sitting so i can kinda guarentee that shell run when im ready???

Just park it, disconnect the battery and after 5 weeks reconnect and start it.

Its not a ferrari, you dont need to do anything special

first off... Haha

And 5 weeks is nothing. Try parking your car for half the damn year.

LOL OBD2 is wiring man, if your car is OBD1 then that is the way its gonna stay. Jspec stuff is not obd2 its all obd0 or 1

Indeed what do you think we do when we store our cars for the winter. I bought my Rx8 in Thanksgiving weekend in October, drove it for the weekend, than put heraway for the winter. Now that's a tease!

[myfirstmazda]

what is this "storing for the winter" you speak of??

[Dark_Rider2k3]

I wish I could store my MX for the winter. I hate getting the salt on it =(
