@mazdarx8diy383 ай бұрын
I have no idea, but based on what I’ve been watching on KZbin, most people just get rid of simple stuff like stuff in the trunk and the rear seats and cut out the carpet. I went all out gutted the entire trunk space got interior everything including most of the wiring I even got rid of my dash , I got rid of my sunroof and my two front windows, I also got the entire AC system and heat system all events. Everything‘s gone. Under the hood there’s no more AC compressor AC condenser no more AC lines., I replaced the radiator with an aluminum radiator. That’s thicker new radiator fans with trout lighter., I also got rid of the windshield washer bottle. There is no more vacuum pump or check valve, no more under tray for plastic intake, I will be installing a colder intake that’s about to come in. I’m bout to do LS coils, I did a complete exhaust, for the exhaust everything is stainless steel new headers, mid pipe and muffler, i’m about to upgrade my starter to a second GEN starter, back to interior there is no more speakers or unnecessary computers or unnecessary wiring, I still need to remove Sound denting material, install a roll cage, install bucket seats removal steering wheel, still need to install fire suppression system, reroute battery to the trunk, install cold air intake, of course, as far as how much weight it lost I did not measure how much the car weighed to begin with, but based on my research, the actual car weight according to Google was 3150 pounds, I think so far I removed 300 to 500 pounds from the car but what I will do once the car is drivable is take it to a truckstop and just weigh it under scales, I am confused a little bit as to how much horsepower the six speed manual Mazda RX8 have I seen 250hp from one of the magazine articles back when 2004 Mazda RX8 came out comparing it to RX7 with 253hp but u think it’s way off, there’s allot of information that it’s only 215hps so maybe it’s wheel horse power

У меня похожая проблема. Холодный двигатель запускается хорошо. Проезжаю,например, 10 км и он глохнет,но когда стоишь на перекрёстке, то есть на холостом ходу. Завожу, но уже труднее, еду уже меньше 5 км. Опять глохнет на холостом. Заводится ещё хуже. Проезжаю уже 2-3 км. Глохнет. И уже не заводится,пока не постоит минут 20 и немного остынет. Завожу. Презжаю 500 м. Опять глохнет. И всё время глохнет на холостом ходу. И уже не заводится долго. Пока хорошо не остынет. 30-60 минут. Температуру показывает нормальную. Ошибки тогда не смотрел. Не было OBD2. Что это может быть? Эта проблема началась после долго простоя 1год в гараже. До того не было. Пробег 84000. Мазда 2003.

Спасибо за просмотр я уже решил эту проблему с моей машиной но буду выставлять видосы показывая что я прошел в данный момент моя машина в гараже у меня тоже это проблема случилась после того как я не заводил её пару месяцев и до этого она стояла где-то год у меня была проблема с тем что машина забыла как на холостых работать нужно было её заново научить первый раз я это сделал ничего не получилось также она оглохла потом я все перепроверил и заново научил её работать на холостых теперь все работает я поставлю видео как я это все решил но могу тебе подсказать две вещи первая то что она оглох хнет это может быть из eccentric shaft sensor, из-за этого сенсора она будет глохнет когда нагреется или плохо заводиться, но у тебя Мазда RX8 и когда машина нагреется будет трудно заводиться полюбому особенно если пробег ну машине же 20 лет но может быть меньше у тебя естественно уже двигатель не имеет такую же компрессию как имел когда был новый. Подсказка второй попробовать сделать так не заводи машину но поставь ключ на второе положение и резко начни качать тормоза где-то 20 раз, наблюдай за стрелочкой где показывают масляное давление, это стрелочка должна слева пойти направо от холодного до горячего и вернуться назад тогда ты будешь знать что у тебя получилось после этого можешь заводить машину если машина работает на холостых то оставь все в покое да и поработать 20 минут а если она хочет глохнуть то старайся чуть-чуть газом добавить там до 2000 оборотов чуть выше как получится когда машина поработать 20 минут то она научиться заново как работать правильно это может быть нужно тебе будет повторить два раза, на второй раз у меня получилось удачи тебе, кстати пишу голосом так что если ошибки это из-за этого

@Clinton-nt6qp3 ай бұрын
If you just hooked the battery up there’s an entire process that the ecu takes to learn the idle. If the car hasn’t been run or driven for an extended amount of time on the road that’s the reason why the idle is not there. I would also recommend not using that intake if it doesn’t have the proper “air strainer/honey Combe splitter before the maf sensor” this will be a continued problem for idle particularly when the car comes to a stop at traffic lights or stop signs. Never rev a rotary at startup above 3-4k as the internal of the engine are not warmed up yet. If you have to keep the throttle on to keep it running that’s fine just wait till the junk oem gauge nears the middle mark. Do all the proper maintenance before hand plugs wires and clean the maf sensor. Without a cat you may also get a funky idle due to the o2 sensors not meeting the ecu threshold

Thank you so much for your advice at this point my Mazda said idles good but with the original equipment, i’m just showing what I just went through. Maybe somebody else can get some help from it., I have to teach it how to idle again the first time I did it it did not help nothing even though everything has worked correctly, i’m talking about pumping brakes 20 times watching the oil gauge needle move to the right to the left. First time that worked just idol did not learn itself for some reason., after checking everything over, I tried to do it again and the second time it worked it learned idle, I just ordered a cold air intake and I plan to install it once it arrives. I really do hope that this will not affect my idol., i’m not sure how to deal with the honeycomb issue. Maybe this is something I can install on the inside modify the colder take a little bit before the master flow sensor.

get O2 sensors . I finally fixed mine! and that's what did it and mine would barely start and idle bad and sound weird too similar symptoms to this. what codes do you get? the last problem was weird idle when i was driving i had to pull over and get towed and it was just a little filter that got stuck in the throttle body from my cold air intake.

Sorry i have my 2008 toyta rav 4 pulled apart on one side and the other im stuck at the hub bearing the fucker WILL NOT MOVE im 230lbs and been a roofer my whole life and grew up on a farm so im really strong for a woman. I even tried useing a jack on a breaker bar and jacked that bitch up and it wont budge. Idk wtf to do at this point.

I did FINALLY GRT THAT BITCH OFF. Just the front 30mm 12 Pont bolt on the front of the hub took 10 minutes with a serious blow torch and then i took a candle and melted it on there and as it cooled it sucked in the wax and a 5 ft breaker bar and thet thing was off. Now. The back bolts are so seized and the cv axel boot is directly in the back of these nuts on the back of the hub so I can barky fit any tools in there and to grt a good grip on those bolts? It's not happening. I might have to take off the whole control arm. At this point I'm just so tired 😫 might be less time and less work to do so. And thank you so much for replying to me!! Most people never get back to me or if they do its a month after I commented and by then I either give up or got it done 😅 anyways... yeah all of this is just after I JUST put in a new valve body litterally 3 days before this hub seized and my truck can't move now it's THAT SEIZED and it gave ZERO WARNING. Zero. No break grinding, no smells, no sounds, nothing I did have it off and replaced the cv axel about a year ago but I had got a job and barky had time to shower let alone work on my truck so I took it to this place down the street where I could walk to and from to drop off my truck and they were supposed to replace both the front hub bearing and I know now thet they were never even touched. I'm not going to let anyone ever touch any of my vehicles again. I always do my own work but having no time just really got me stuck. Lesson learned I guess 😔 thanks again and also if you have any tips at all I judt subed and I'll turn on my notifications for you. Nobody else got that 😊
