plz help guys!

Thanks!

call me 4083359255

 

give us a bit more info and maybe we can help you from here.

- what did the car do when you tried to start it today?
- how long since you last drive the car? Did you move it a short distance and turn it off?
- Have you ever flooded the car before?
- Did you ever get your starter / battery upgraded via Mazda TSB?

 

i got 04 AT rx8 like 3 weeks ago or so... so i don't know if this has a upgraded starter and battery....

i was about to leave this morning for work about 7:00 am in like 40 degrees...
then it wont start... i turned my headlights on and my lights turns on slowly like the battery going out.... i jumped it... still no luck... just the battery borrowed my friends battery... still no hope... then put my battery to his car started right away.... so it means it not my battery....

i drove my car last saturday for a long distance like for an hour drive....
then now tuesday morning trying to start it. it wont start like what i said....

i never know what flooded means til now that my car wont start, started reading about flooding... tried the 10 sec cranking while the gas pedal floored... still no hope... tried pulling the fuel fuse cranking about 10 sec also still no hope... i wanna do the spark plug cleaning.... but u think that might me the problem? plz help me guys im pissed because just got a car and expecting not having a problem before i sold my lude and evo but still problem occurs....

additional i bought my car as is.... so it means no warranty... thats why dont wanna call the dealer yet because im broke now and got some outing going on so i needed my lil saving....

plz help guys!

 

Oh sunnyville When u got free time ill come...

Its a little nice drive...

Also i might be able to bring other rotor heads too.

 

So the car is turning over but not getting spark?

I can swing by friday if you're still not able to get it started. I would recommend taking out the spark plugs and air out the chambers if you have a socket, extension and a wobble end, otherwise i'll bring them with me.

PM me before friday if you still need some help.

 

thanks guys... my car works now again... i did the 5 mins deflooding DIY... and it works good... but did plenty of times tho... but i'll do my spark plug soon maybe friday... if someone's willing to help that will be great...
