    Strange gas issue...need help

    So I have a weird fuel delivery issue in my protege5 with about 220k miles. When I get around 1/3 of a tank my engine starts misfiring and occasionally losing all power. This gets worse when I take left-hand turns. When I bought the vehicle the seller told me he had replaced the gas tank...

    WTB: MP3 ECU $150 shipped

    SOLD: Preferably FS9N-18-881C but will consider B and others. Found one for $150 but it's a 4 hour round trip to pick up. I figure I'd rather give $150 to someone on here if they have one than a random junkyard. Thanks, Dave

    I've done some searching and found info on lots of things, but none for my specific problem I don't think. If it is out there please direct me there and I apologize for the inconvenience. Anyway.... In my 03 P5....up until about a week ago my suspension and steering systems operated silently...

    Warburrito's eco / aero Protege5 build *new

    So I recently picked up my second protg...a P5 wagon this time instead of an ES. My ES still runs at 247k miles but I hit the point where I'd rather drop the money for something in better condition instead of into the frequent repairs. After I strip any parts off of it that I want I'll be...
