US Emissions warranty. 80k miles?

I've heard 80,000 miles is what the emissions warranty is, is this the case?
What's this warranty cover? Is it basically all emissions related stuff, or is it just specific parts like the cat?
I think my air injection pump is dead, (blows the 60A fuse immediately,) and would like to know if I can get Mazda to pay for it before I blow close to $400 on a new one.
Thanks.

if all else fails, you could just rip it out and not install a new one.

**ATTENTION** Check for the original date of sale on the vehicle!! Mazda's emissions warranty is an 8Year OR 80,000mile warranty, which means if the date of the original purchase hits the 8year mark before your vehicle reaches 80,000miles, they may not cover you. So be prepared and check early!!! I'm dealing with this Right Now and I'm praying that it still works out, but I'll keep you guys informed.

Any reason why you brought back a thread that was 2 years and 9 months old?
I think the OP probably has things figured out by this point in time.

BC.
