Sorry guy's know you get a lot of these as I've read them all lol

I've got an idle issue after leaving the battery disconnected for 24 hrs when I changed my starter so think the ecu reset

I've got past my flood due to the burnt starter, and cold started it 5 times not touching anything and letting it figure things out itself for 10+ minutes.

I've drove it once since and still stalls

Do I
A) continue with the cold starts and letting it sit for 10+ mins without touching the peddles (all electrics on or off as read both options)
B) drive it as much as possible

To make things more tricky I have a warm start issue, think due to spark plugs as it went from year 5 service to 7 and believe plugs are changed at 6 so I'm hoping its this but will get a compression test the weekend

It's a 54 plate with 142k miles on the clock but has been serviced on Mazda years 1,2,3,5 and 7 and only had one owner who checked the oil weekly and always got the advisories done on the services.

Any help will be greatly appreciated as I need it to idle properly so I can drive it to Essex rotary and get the compression test and plugs changed

Thanks in advance

 

Does it run poorly besides the stalling? I mean when you rev/drive it...are there any misfires? Any CEL?
1. What year is your car? Original Engine?
2. When was the last time the ignition coils, wires, and plugs were replaced? If the plugs were replaced at "year 6"....how many miles/km ago was that? Was tbe rest of the ignition system replaced at the time?
3.Try doing the 20 brake stomp reset and see if that helps.
4.If it was flooded, then the plugs more than likely need to be replaced anyway.

The stalling could be caused by misfires due to crappy plugs, and computer issue (20 stomp reset), ignition coils, compression loss...etc.

 

I got this from my mechanic (Sammy at Stillen). I don't know where he got it or how nobody here has ever seen it, but this works every time for me and its so simple. THERE IS NO NEED TO DRIVE AROUND FOR HOURS OR DAYS TO FIX THIS, it only takes like 5 minutes.


and that's all folks, as easy as it gets.
