I am screwe.. PLZ HELP
today i got up and went to put some oil 5-30gtx and drove it around a bit than i tried to redline it in 3rd gear and it wouldnt go past 6krpm and the cel light started blinking and now the cel is on i dont know whats wrong can any one help??
|
compression? missfire? :dunno: thats what it sounds like to me but I am by no means extremely knowledgeable on this subject. Go to autozone and get the CEL code that way you know for sure
|
wast the car cold? also try to unplug your battery and plug it back in and see how it goes, my engine light came on after some guys at the bodyshop flooded my 8 ... after that my light went away
ipb |
Wouldn't rev past 6k or revved past 6k but was bogging?
|
ya it was bogging and than it would get past 6k
|
its 04 32000miles 6speed
|
I had a bogging issue with my last motor and it was just coils and plugs. 32,000 miles is about right if you are on stock coils and plugs.
|
...get the CEL code ... Ken |
yeah i agree, it definitely has to be your coils and plugs. if you had no compression usually the car won't even start, or in some cases it will start but you can barely put the car into gear. take it to autozone, or if you have a warranty, call mazda roadside and have it towed to the dealer.

Get the code from the CEL
Common points are Plugs, Wires, Plugs, Cat. |
now its fine it red lines in anygear no problems but the cel light is still on??
|
Did you get the code pulled? Basically the car is trying to tell you what it thinks is wrong and rather than find out what that is, you are asking people who have never seen the car to guess. My guess is you're out of v-tech fluid!
|
no i have no time have to go to work.. wtf is a vtech fluid....
|
hahhahaha the guy was making a joke. ignore it, its only for hondas
|
Get an OBD2 reader if you seriously don't have time to take a 10min trip to autozone to get the code read, cheap as dirt.
|
Yeah... you definitely dont work every day of the week so often that you can't get the code checked at an auto store. If you really dont have that kind of time, then I dont know how you'll have time to fix the issue.

And by the way, it's "then", not "than" |
Flashing CEL is a mis fire. . . your check engine light will stay on until you've address said misfire.
A miss fire under high load has already been said by many. Address in this order: Plugs: when is the last time they've been changed? (BHR has best plug prices) Coils: when is the last time they have been changed? Wires: " " At 32k in an '04, the age of the original parts is becoming an issue. Also, disconnecting your battery will reset the ECU and thus reset the check engine light. Let us know how it goes! |

+1 - this is a minor issue... your car didn't explode, its not on fire, and you didn't hit anything.
However, take the time to do it right. Mix up the leading and trailing plugs and you'll have a problem. Strip out the spark plug threads on the engine, then you'll have a real problem. Don't forget the dielectric grease and anti-seize. |

Mate, it's already been said what you need to do, we can't do anything more for you until you get the CEL read and give us more info on the plugs & coils. |
