This thread fails without PICS!

 

I posted a couple of pics dondo sent me in the chat thread.

Here are two pics of them throwing back some beer How many ounces

 

a boot of beer hahahaha

 

Lol

 

Just made it back to rainy Seattle. Linda, thanks for the drugs . Made my flight much better. Have a safe drive to San Diego with urbanocho!

 

So I'm selling my car as soon as I fix it.. Unsure if I will buy a different one or just be done with rotary. My car keeps lossing power and now it won't start. Towing it to a shop them flying home probably

 

What's it doing? How did you know it was losing power?

 

It won't do anything now , but it would just slow down and since it's a automatic it would down shift for more power and nothing would happen. I had to pull over and try starting it again. Then I was looking for a shop and it won't start. It turns over but won't start

 

You are still in Vegas?

 

Nah Utah

 

was there any shop open? what's your plan?

 

Does anyone else have mad problems with their car or is it just mine ?

 

Any other symptoms? Loss of power is a big one and could be a sign the motor is done but need more details. Up to date on maintenance? I hope you have all your records.

 

Uh you know dondo just had our motors swapped

 

Hotel tonight towing it 200 miles tomorrow to the closest shop that knows how to work on rotary

 

Well mine is never ending.

 

may be a good thing. might get a fresh motor out of it like pdx and i did

 

I have all the records all maintainence up today just had everything looked at on Wednesday efore we left. New motor"crosses fingers""

 

Maybe I'll trade it in and get me a 6 speed

 

you could get it all fixed up, hopefully for free, then trade it in. it'll be worth more with a new motor anyway

 

yeah im pretty sure its the motor.. it just like lossed all power. and then died.. i got it to start again a couple times then it died again. i was looking for a shop to take it to. but no dice.. insurance is paying the 875 dollar towing fee. and im trying to get my cousin a plane ticket back home then ill be staying with my car i do know a couple ladies out here so hopefully it wont be misserable but its official my bank accounts will be empty.. oh well. vegas was fun.

 

(sneaks into NW thread)

bignatex: I'm leaning towards your coils getting toasted while you were out here. Our OEM coils are problematic and also prone to failure in extreme heat.
that could easily explain your loss of power and problem starting.

get it towed to a mazda dealership, not just some normal shop because they won't know how to diagnose the coils and will tell you something retarded like the valves are stuck or your engine head is broken.

 

hes got a brand new bhr ignition on there. we installed it at dicks. haha

oh and you know you're always welcome up here in the nw.
