Well I recently removed my Buddy Club Racing Spec Condenser. Because I felt it wasn't a full enough upgraded ground and was gonna just get a red wire keep. I know appearances wow.


When I first installed the BC RSC I had some odd ball idles figured it was normal for this product.

I am now completely back to stock and the car is doing similiar idle issues. But today the car kept on stalling.


Any ideas of how to fix it? Basically the car just wants to idle below the normal(just below 1k i mean)



Any ideas? Greatly appreciated

Thank you Charles!

I went out to my car and unscrewed my maf and made sure it was clean.


Then I did the 20 brake pumps Started the car and it stalled. I said oh what the hell I'm screwed as it is, and figured maybe I didn't pump enough or fast enough. I did it again the 20 pumps in the on position. The engine light flashed and then went back to solid yellow. I let the car sit on neutral for a minute. Then figured to give it a test drive. The car runs fine. I coasted and would rev around to let it drop to neutral. No dramatic like crazy idles like i was getting.


Problem solved for now! Thank you

I was not getting any CELs. I was having like weird idles where the needle would drop down the the first slash next to zero and then go to the next. Then be fine. Or it'd idle down to 1k(normalish) then go and the battery? light I believe came on first and then all 4 lights came on to show that the car had stalled.


But the CEL light I was reffering to blinking was during the 20 brake pumps

Is the ESS the same plug I pull for the Zoom Power Clean?

ok thats wat i hoped cuz my car was doing the same thing i did the 20 pumps after i read the thread car seems to idle a hell of a lot better, so i hope this fixes the prob but i never had the stalling issues just the low idle,

I'm having intermittent stalling at traffic lights and the idle has always been very shakey. After it stalls it will not start for 45 minutes to an hour. Then it starts right up! 154K miles on it. Mazda can not make it cut out. It is making me paranoid at traffic lights cause I give it gas to keep idle above 1K. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

From what Ive read in here, clean the ESS surface, do the 20 pump reset , the ECU reset ,Possibly a busted engine mount ,and as for the hard hot starts, a compression test .
