Grrrr, I didnt drive my car yesterday.

Today, fired her up, hmm idle seems kinda funky, during the 2 minute warm up time, the idle was jumping from 1500 ~ 1300 all around every 2 seconds ... ok I wait till it's going around 1000. then I start driving ....

and at the first stop sign - brake - slow down - clutch in - engine died ...

then it repeated itself for at least 20 times within the 5 miles that I had travel.

Grr .... tell me this is not true !

Consider the amount of maintenance work I did to my car ... this is really disappointed

Last week I should have told Wayne Mazda that my car has been stalling for quite a while, not every stop sign or 2 lights like today. but it did happen. *shurgs*

need to go back ...

 

dude that sucks... I hope its something small, and stupid... and cheep... unless you really want a new engine :P

 

My car did something similar a few days ago... ended up being a loose battery connection... might want to check that.

 

I hope its something small and easy good luck.

 

Damn, that really sucks. Hope it gets better soon. Good luck!

 

Search noob


try a decarb with some seafoam .....

 

kinda right..

but make sure plugs are tight.. that one got me..

wires tight..

and coils you know..

brett.. check your gmail. you hate me now.. i had no idea!


beers

 

you n00b ! lol !

*shurgs* dealership did it once, and that was just about a month something 2 ago. you noooooob !

checked battery this afternoon, tight as HELL

plugs should be tight, I didnt do it, Kevin @ Wayne Mazda replaced it lol !

Same for coils

*shrugs*

made appointment to check it out monday, this stallin' made me look like a moron, like I dont know how to drive a manual car or something -_-

 

ouch, good luck man!

Oh, and learn to spell you n00b; "Search and Destory"

 

blah.

I feel like I did all these maintenance for nothing ... Mazda screwed me up with just a messed up flash ...

Now I wonder, if a crazy *** like me who change his oil every 1.5K-3K miles "might" get a bad motor. how many people out there actually runnin' a bad motor now without knowing it

 

 

this not these - jeeeebus !!!+++=1111


You probably treat it too well - these motors like to be ridden hard - have you done that ?

 

Will that clean out the kind of carbon deposits you get from running synthetic oil?

Ken

 

more like my motor is too clean, so clean + low OMP rate thx to Mazda's flash = it actually rub against each other (seals and rotor housing) and at the end, no good.

 

I ride her like a bitch. dont ya get that ?

Is thiz not this !

 

ny: don't beat yourself up over this, you might have just gotten a bad engine to begin with and ALL THIS maintenance you put in, just helped to prolong the inevitable. Had you not maintained it, you might have had the engine go BOOM a long time ago.

let us know what the stealership says tomorrow.

 

true ...

I'll report back tomorrow

 

Hope you have better luck than I.

 

back,

all plugs were foul, so they did a decarb + replaced all 4 plugs + all 4 new coils again.

They just replaced my coils + plugs + decarb like 3-5 months ago. They were surprised that all plugs were foul + bad coils again in such little time.

Engine is stronger than it looks, even higher compression than last time, so I guess its ok. Idle and stuff all back to normal. no new engine needed (YaY)

but they did recommend me to rev my car a bit before shutting it down. will do that from now on.

 

Face it nycgps - you just aint riding her hard enough LOL

 

hmm ...

*shurgs*

try harder ?

 

wooahhhh - 9000 posts you can't post again for two days . New forum rule

 

Die !

 

 

did you just have it at the stealership? My car for whatever reason refuses to idle for the first 3 or so trips after a reflash or the fuel trims are reset...
