mine is the fact i couldn't get the sway bars completly tightened back up when reinstalling them. once a get some socket allen wrenches i will be able to fix it.

i've got spool and i know its from not being able to get the sway bars tightened up correctly, i had a wrench and a tiny allen wrench so i know they aren't tight. i'm getting some socket style allen wrenchs soon this way i will know its tight.

(nervous)I wish i were getting air tools

if you don't have air tools like me, all you need is a good set of impact sockets and a breaker bar and you can do it just fine, my problem was i didn't get the breaker bar until the tranny was half way out.

you don't have to take the axels out of the hubs. if you disconect the control arm on one side, this will allow each assemby to turn without having the other one turn with it. all it take at this point is a thin crobar to get inbetween the axel and tranny,you just need to becareful and not ruin...

mathew, i've replaced my tranny on my p5 myself, well i had a friend just help me hold the thing, it took about 4 hrs to get it out and about 3 to get it back in, i've never done a engine or tranny swap before and use all hand tools. once the tranny is out the clutch is so easy to get to. my...

you open the first hole first so air can get into the tranny to push the old fluid out, if you don't do this, imagine tring to dump a 2liter drink out and how it goes everywhere and not just flow out like your engine oil does.

i was asking a question, not making a statement, sorry about the confusion. i don't know where to get it unless you order it or goto a race shop. i just used the funnel with a hose designed for tranny fluid fills, they sell them at autozone for like 4 bucks.

any major autopart stores that carry it, i run mobil1 synthedic and not that pleased with it.

it doesn't matter the wattage on the resistor, get which everones are 99 cents the the cap at is 99cents, works great.

i called mazda and they said its not the 02 sensor, the will run even with it not plugged in, does anyone have a way to test my ecu without having to pay 100 bucks at the dealership

i don't remember toching it, but will that ruin it? also if its not plugged in, the car won't start right?

i got a MIL and it said cat not getting hot enough, so we figured it was the o2 sensors. well since the first one is easy to get to i pulled it out, looked normal , blowed on it and replaced it back into the car, plugged it in and now the car won't start, my MIL went off, and according the the...

Not many of you know me but i'm located in the dallas/ft worth area. I will be moving to the pittsburgh area to head up a mobil1 service shop. My wifes family bought it and they needed someone who likes cars and such to run it, and since i've always ran mobil1 synthedic stuff, i jumped all over...
