That just tells me there are a lot of stupid dealers out there that can't even be bothered to read up on the cars they stock before they sell them.

I'm missing something here. There was a flooding problem before what? The RX-8? Flooding has been a known issue with rotaries since their inception including Mazda's rotaries since the 1960s.

ya but the dealer said it was MY fault when I flooded it and wasn't covered under warranty last time .... but then I called up mazda and everything got sorted out .... some dealers just think the rx-8 don't have flooding issues ....

and I meant before M flash ,cause after I got the m flash , no more floods .. atleast not yet ...

and gotta love the quote "One of the Trailing Spark Plugs is BRAND NEW!! They are used with less than 10 miles on them. " .... lol used for 10 miles then flooded ? wow ...


and I have no idea if its a dealer but sure looks like someone that works for one , cause how would they get a couple of factiry flooded spark plugs from a rx-8? lol

edit: Also has to have some relation with a mazda dealer cause hes selling mazda rx-8 catologs and mazdaspeed miata post cards and catalogs , I think a couple of posters and banners from before too , if I remember correctly.

Ahhh, got it now.

A lot of ebayers hit garage sales, garbages, etc., so it's possible he hit the dealer trash or knows somebody at a dealer.
