Did you or didn't you call Mazda Roadside Assistance to pick up your car?

"well i asked for an alternative to the DIY thas posted basically, and im fed up with it so I called mazda roadside to pick it up, im just assed out because im not under warranty anymore. Only good news is that this isnt the first time it's happened to me so I dont have to worry about getting a new battery."

HINT:
1.When it starts to die down start pumping the gas
2. and try to boost the car while cranking.example with another car giving you a battery boost.get ready for a cloud so out of garage would be nice so it doesnt get inside your home.

Remove your drivers side tire. Remove your spark plugs. Get inside the car, start cranking for a couple of seconds. Get out of the car. Put in your spark plugs. Start the car.

I tried that as well, I even cleaned the spark plugs also, but still nothing......

But my car is at the dealer waiting to get worked on, and called Mazda usa to see if they can assist me in anyway....

realized last time my car was at the dealer because it was hard to start they were suppose to install the new spark plugs and a different voltage batterym instead they replaced me witht he same one, so i'll see where all my bitchin' can get me, hopefully mazda will at least fork out half
