    It was the harmonic balancer. Thank you all for you all for your help, never would have gotten as far as I have without it! Engine is running, took advantage of my buddies lift in the process and did my own custom exhaust that sounds amazing! Thanks again!

    swapped engine, getting no spark

    Ok, I heard that getting PCM's for these cars was extremely difficult. The dealer said that my PCM for my VIN was discontinued and can no longer be ordered. There are several part numbers for PCM's that go to MSP's which is why I asked all that jazz before which was probably really confusing I...

    swapped engine, getting no spark

    Ok, so I went to the dealer and gave them the run down on whats happening and his thought was that the PCM is bad. There are a lot of part numbers for PCM's of this car and unfortunately mine is the one no longer available and cheapest I've found online is $700. I'm not done trouble shooting...

    swapped engine, getting no spark

    Fsde with a non turbo fsde. To be honest, I have no clue if the original engine is the one I pulled, I got the car for super cheap and I've had to do a lot of work to it. A lot of stuff the previous owners did is band aid stuff. I can tell you however that I had to swap everything that bolts to...

    swapped engine, getting no spark

    Ok people, I need help figuring out why I'm not getting any spark when I crank over my engine that I just swapped. All connections are good as far as I can tell, tried 2 sets of coil packs, 2 sets of wires. Tried pulling the boot and sticking a grounded plug in it to see if there was spark and...

    Start-up hesitation

    Thanks for the info, I'll do that. I never bring the car to redline, I may drive hard but I'm not stupid lol. I bought the car for $900 so I already knew I was going to be fixing a lot of things, just not this. I don't want to clean out the engine because there is always going to be metal...

    Start-up hesitation

    So my engine threw a rod bearing and now there is metal everywhere ... I have pulled the engine out and have it completely taken apart. I've come to the decision that I'm just going to replace it with a used longblock. I've been looking at JDM engines, is there anything I should know before I...

    Start-up hesitation

    I have a black MSP that looks like it's seen better days and I was at the domain doing some work. Honestly I don't know what I'm going to do with the car. I primarily bought it because it was cheap and it ran, needed a second car. I'd love to get the car back to new condition, but it'll be a...

    Start-up hesitation

    Ok, so I've been busy and finally was able to get to replacing parts on the car, with what I could spend my money on anyways. New brake res cap, the old one was busted. Could have been why the ABS light was coming on and off? New Mazda gas cap. New PCM with bushing. New alt belt. Newest problem...

    Start-up hesitation

    So far it's started right up no problem since I changed out the battery terminal. New problem now is my ABS light comes on intermittently.

    Start-up hesitation

    NGK iridium whatever AutoZone came up with, I'm going to double check the gaps this evening. I'm pretty sure it's the coils packs too.

    Start-up hesitation

    Sounds like I got my work cut out for me. Got that P0300 code again, multiple misfires, I already changed the plugs and wires, might pull the plugs and double check gaps I might have missed one. I'm thinking coils though.
