lets just take off the front chamber...leave everything in the car

 

Funny enough the oil injectors int he front housing are the ones that were bad...

 

very interesting.....so are they fixed?...if not I bet your not very far away from failure

 

I have no idea how many miles I went before noticing those failed injectors. I started pre mixing heavily once i found it. Then ran out of premix and drove for a few hundred without it. We shall see how long she lasts, I expect failure within the next 10k. I was only shooting for 40k out of this engine so if I get another 10k I'll be happy.

I need to review my pics and see where the chrome flake housing is as well.

 

Looks like the more aggressive chrome flake was int he rear housing but its kind of hard to tell. I didn't document the flake that well.

 

cool...well when you are ready I now have everything to measure plates/housings
step wear tool
3" micormeter or housings
dial indicator w/base
v-blocks
and my trusty old starrett calipers

 

I'm more interesting in getting a compression tester, considering you and I together just dropped enough to buy one.

 

Maybe next time you can get it right and get it tight! Ms. New Booty - YouTube

 

damn what did your test cost? mine was $100 large...tester is $2k (about $1500too large )
you went there...I almost sent you a photo from lowes yesterday...it was all about getting it right...but it wasnt tight

 

I was talking about the $200 tester.

I paid $178

Me: Are you sure this was done at 250
Tech: oh yea.
Me: 6.0 is failing if it was done at 250.
Tech: no 6.0 is passing.
Me: no, the manual states that 6.8 is the minimum and 8.5 is the max.
Tech: well your coils are bad.
Me: no they aren't they are fine and even if they were bad that wouldn't have an effect on compression.
Tech: Well the IDS said you have like 2000 misfires.
Me: OK I'll test them, but I want to make sure this was at 250, is there a printout
Tech: No there's no printout, 6.0 passes
Me:ok well according to the factory manual it doesn't
Tech: oh well your baro meter is failed was at 3.9 v it supposed to be at 1.9
Me: Oh OK cool, I'll get right on that.

Then me and my rice mobile peaced the efff out.

 

Dude, they have to give you written results don't they? Doesn't the WDS print it out? Both times I got a nice print out with everything on it.

 

I am not familiar with that tester...hook me up

if that is how your conversation went that is just confirmation to not let mazda touch your car for anything else.

you still fail

 

that doesnt apply to just a compression test....that test is way more expensive (I have mine)

 

I have the written results, in the form of the tech entering notes and printing them out on a piece of paper.

anyways where is the baro meter, I need to replace it.

 

Also I still think my engine was cranking low rpms... I have no hot start or cold start issues, no loss of power, no stalling. I pull on peroxides r3 a few months back...

Fawk it I'm buying a legit mazda compression tester after I sell a kidney.

 

It's by the air pump, I need to replace mien too just for GP.

 

I think it is the part next to the air pump with the black tube that looks like the tip of a syringe. I think its a mitsu part.

 

Just in case anyone was interested in compressor wheel trim
