    Missing engine - help!

    Thanks! I've never heard that before and have run nothing but Borscht in my trucks over the years. This is the first time I've had issues with them, but they were the mid grade plugs...the super plus. I'll definately be keeping my eyes on them tho!

    Missing engine - help!

    The only code that was displayed was a vacuum canister purge but that isn't the problem. When I bought the truck, the lines were all dry rotted. I pulled them off and capped the corresponding place where I pulled them off...that was 10 minutes after buying it. I've put 15K miles on it since then...

    Missing engine - help!

    Voltage while running is 14.6V with the stereo off...it varies while the stereo is running at full tilt. It's right around 12V after sitting all night.

    Missing engine - help!

    I have a 94 Mazda B4000. It is the 4.0L, automatic with roughly 278000 miles on it. The only modifications are the alternator, when from the stock 95 amp to a newer models 130 amp. Two 10" JL Audio W0's and a 600 watt JL amp. Other than that the truck is stock. About a week ago the engine...

    amber check engine light

    This probably isn't any help.....but my check engine light is on 99.9% of the time.....at least I think it is....put a piece of black tape over it about 2 weeks after I got the truck. Seriously tho, it could be anything.....it's just a sensor sending a message back to the computer. If the...

    Part Identification --- NEED HELP

    So, I may have missed the driveway (too much bird crap on my mirror) and drove into the ditch by the house. This stretched the suspension QUITE a bit (leaving one wheel off the ground). No real issues, but I found one of these rubber body mount looking things on each side of the truck after I...

    Electrical Upgrade Questions

    Stopped by the local electric motor repair shop yesterday.....he said to change out the pulley for a smaller one. What it will do is cause the alternator to spin faster. It won't produce more power or current but it will produce it faster! I think I am going to buy a new battery first and see if...

    Electrical Upgrade Questions

    FINALLY got to the work at hand. Replaced the grounds to the motor and body over the weekend and MOST of the dimming has stopped. Still draws alot of power at high volume but that is to b expected. I think that the 130A alternator will do the trick for now. The 200A is looming in the near future!

    Electrical Upgrade Questions

    You can purchase online and choose in store pickup but then your local store doesn't get credit for the sale. So, go all the way to checkout and just print out the page and take it into the local store and they will match it! No questions asked! The code by the way was "ALTX"

    Electrical Upgrade Questions

    I really wanted to go with a 200A right from the get go, but I fell onto this 130A, brand new for $85. Had to give it a go before I spent a weeks pay on the 200A! Going to do the grounds tonight after work and see if I fixed the problem. If I could only do 65mph all the time, this wouldn't b...
