Flapper valve

:
06 LS MS6
07 BM GT (shell has been struck from the roll)
OK, so what is the spring loaded flap on the firewall for.

its near the alternator
 
well i looked through the whole 2910 page mazda manual and its not in there.......maybe ask a service tech at mazda and see what they say
 
Pics of said flap. What year?

The MS3 has one of the most packed engine bays in the history of cars.
I can't see s***.
 
I always wondered what that was for too, maybe it has something to do with the air conditioning or heater to release pressure so it doesn't cause condensation inside or something.
 
You mean that valve that sits right by the alternator on the back firewall? That's just the PTM sphincter fluctuator diameter valve. It's where the gnomes conjure up the blue smoke that comes out the exhaust; they make it in little black cauldrons--once in a great while, you can see them in action. Sneak out into the garage in the middle of the night and quickly pop the hood: sometimes you can see them with the valve open, sittin there smokin' cigars and stirring their pots. But it don't last long, they'll slam the valve shut and tell you to F--- off. Dirty little B@st@rds.







I have no clue what you are talking about, but I am subbing in hopes of learning something new!

You've never seen into the engine bay of a 2000 Nissan 300zx TT, huh? A friend of mine owns one and it's INSANE how packed it is!

Oh, that's Mr. Fusion. Mr. Fusion powers the time circuits and the flux capacitor. But the internal combustion engine runs on ordinary gasoline. It always has.
