    Cold Starting and Oil Viscosity Question

    Car somewhat didn't want to start this morning, I had some issues with this last year too, when the temperature dipped into the 40's, the car wouldn't start... Question: Could viscosity of motor oil be the issue here? If I would crank and crank on the car eventually the battery would die or...

    Another Wheel Bearing Question, Rear this time...

    Ok, did the front wheel bearings a few months ago, roaring is still there, except no longer in the front, in the back... Vato-Zone says there are two different rear "hub" and bearing assembly's for a 2002 Mazda Protege. One for "anti-lock brakes" and one for "drum brakes." Well, technically...

    Half-Shaft wont click in...

    I searched, no luck... I'm SO close to having my P5 back on the road. I was close enough at one point that I almost had everything put away, all I was doing was filling the transmission. When I got to the 3rd qt, however, I checked under the car (as I had been doing every so often) and I...

    RSX-S springs on the front of my P5?

    Yellow! Ok, here's the deal... 2002 P5 About two months ago I swapped struts and springs, KYB GR2's and MSP springs. The thing is, as some warned, the back sags. I measured before and after, the back dropped an inch and the front only dropped 1/2 of an inch. Though there is only 1/2 inch...

    Crazy idle after Header install?

    Ok, I installed my no-name eBay ($75 shipped) header about 2 or 3 weeks ago with minimal trouble... Why? Well from my searching and digging I deduced that the 1st cat was plugged from a bad coil pack (or two) or maybe from the piles of smoke that blow out the exhaust after the car sits for 8+...

    Suspension Setup, DD P5

    Ok, so I'm tired of bouncing all over the place. I believe my struts are originals and I'm about to roll 216,000 miles. SPRINGS I want to lower the car, ever so slightly, I've got a guy from another (local) board with a set of MSP springs for me. From what I've read, this will drop me about...

    What's up? I'm jumping the gun a little here as I don't actually have the car yet, but I'm purchasing a 2002 P5! I've always had a thing for P5's and I'm basically stealing this one from a guy that stole it from a dealership, not actual stealing, just really cheap! Needs a knock sensor (to...
