    Replaced fuel pump and it fixed my transmission.

    Last week I finally got in the new fuel pump assembly for my 5 sp '93 Navajo. The first thing I noticed was with the new pump the Nav starts and is running a little quicker than before. Prior to the old original pump going out I was having shifting issues with some grinding in 1st and 2nd and...

    Is my fuel pump dead?

    Update for my '93 Navajo. ( OP) removed the back seats on both sides. pulled back carpet and removed the black plastic seat support. ( 2 screws) In my Nav there is already a rubber plug in the center of the floor so I pulled it out to get an idea of the thickness of the floor metal. Not thick...

    Is my fuel pump dead?

    Good tool to use. OK so I push in the pin prior to ignition and did get a little squirt of fuel spit out. Then I try again with cycling the key a few times and nothing came out. I tried this a few times. Nothing. Two Advance stores near me neither one has a fuel pressure gauge to loan &...

    Is my fuel pump dead?

    Does the ignition need to be on as in trying to start the truck while the pin inside the valve is being pushed in at the same time? Also I have the cap off and there's not much room to use a screwdriver head or even a tire prissure gauge to push that pin in. Tried both and there is a thick...

    Is my fuel pump dead?

    93 Mazda Navajo 237,000 miles. Always engine runs like a sewing machine. Smoothly. In south Fl it's been hot where the real feel the past 2 months is between 100* - 110* F each day. So after a 2 hour drive on errands yesterday I am at a light and engine shuts off like I ran out of gas. (I was...

    The easier way to refill your 5 speed manual transmission

    Just finished transmission fluid change ( drain & fill) on my 5 speed 4x4 Navajo. Bolts were too tight for me with the 1/2" ratchet wrench I had so I picked up the longer length and heavier torque wrench at WM. Sprayed the bolts good with PB blaster after coming home last night so the heat was...

    So I do not have a photobucket I have to upload that then upload my pictures then upload from there to here. It would be easier if you imagine you don't have to go through photobucket.

    Hey Rick, Long shifting is just compared to the "short shifting" N Beetle 5 speed I had last . The shifting though is somewhat of a struggle to go from 1st to 2nd and a little into 1st ...Not so much 3rd down to 2nd though. I am hoping this is maybe a hydraulic fluid thing and not anything...
