    98' protege bucks

    It tends to only do it when trying to accelerate fast from a stop (getting into traffic). While driving doing a steady speed limit it is fine now, my plugs were really clean, but kind of white with little white spots (incorrect ignition timing?)

    98' protege bucks

    It's throwing up P0300 from what I saw on the checker, random misfire. How do I go about checking the timing on one of these engines? Do I have to take off the valve cover to do so? A link to some useful timing info would be great.

    98' protege bucks

    Jay Leno's Mazda Cosmo Sport

    I know they only have 3parts, I've rebuilt more than you can count on your own hands. And jay leno doesn't need to build it himself, he has money. Why pay someone $500 to build an engine when you can do it yourself in one day for just the parts cost.
