    My laser blue Mazdaspeed Protege build thread

    Turned out that it wasn't my feul injector, swapped it out and the same problem was happening then I checked my coil pack and seen a little burn mark on the side of the part that goes on the spark plug. Went and got a new coil pack and the car is back running

    Found this when I had the head off the car last week... Luckily I had a spare though. Got the car all back together and it still won't idle but I have someone else looking at it this week so hopefully they can figure out what it is

    Think I have found my problem! While the head was off we got to looking at the block and the head gasket that was on the car and it didn't look right, there was water/oil all over the gasket and looked like it was coming out the front of the motor. http://www.mazdaspd.com/manual_files/01-10b.pdf...

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    Yea I'm pretty positive there's a clog in the system, I flushed my heater core out when the motor was out of the car and a bunch of nasty stuff came out but I'm replacing the thermostat today and see if that helps. My top radiator hose gets hot but the bottom doesn't, and I just put that pro 5...

    The cap seems to fit snug, i put a protege 5 radiate in it when I swapped motors as got a new cap, could it have something to do with the heater core possibly?
