If you have Mazda 323 anywhere from 1994 - 1998 and the radiator starts to boil after running it for a couple of minutes, check if you temp goes higher than normal. If this is the case, this is most likely to do with your thermostat which is probably jammed shut which doesn't let the cooled water run through into your engine. When this happens the outlet of water from your engine is boiling the water which is jammed. Theres two water pipes connecting the radiator to the engine the lower pipe on the left is the outlet from your engine and the higher right side is the outlet into your engine. If you remove the higher right hand side pipe which is normally held on by a jubilee clip makesure your engine is cool. Undo the 3 bolts to the inlet which is connecting the radiator pipe to your engine and you will see your thermostat pop it off with a knife or a screwdriver. You should be able to pick up a thermostat for around £6. Replace with a new one, replace your inlet and your radiator pipe. Refill your radiator and your problem should be solved. Good Luck.

The Mazda 323 of that time from had a 1600cc engine but that isn't going to effect the issue of where to get a wiring diagram. Haynes makes a manual for the 1990-1994 Mazda 323. If you have a 1986-1989 Mazda 323, you will need to get a FSM (Factory Service Manual).
