I'm assuming that you are trying to do away with some kind of governor function and somehow you think it is connected to the vehicle speed sensor. First, the vehicle speed sensor is just that, a sensor. It does nothing except send pulses to the computer and possibly the speedometer. If the vehicle is equipped with a governor, I'm sure that function takes place in the computer. -In trucks 1994 and newer speed is electronically limited by the ECU and is usually set to the factory speed rating of the tires. Without going to a stand alone ECU about the only way to change it is to have a speed shop reflash the computer.

Typically diesel engines do not have timing marks. However, if there are timning marks on your Mazda B2500 diesel, they will be found below the crankshaft section of the engine.

I got an MPV 2000, also had challenges identifying where the engine number is. Had to call in a mech, but you can DIY, you can read the engine number from beneath the engine not too far from the oil filter, or somewhere very close, cos the mech didnt have any problem locating it, got the engine number out in a minute.

Just out of curiousity, how is the transmission in this vehicle. Could the transmission be out of sync with the engine? This has happened to me when i had the transmission replaced in a dodge caravan, Good Luck

purchase it with a gasket and replace it but it doesn't work some time if you looking forward to kill your check-engine light.

The Mazda Tribute ecu has to relearn/ reprogram itself(1)You could take your vehicle to the nearest Mazda dealer get your computer "flashed". (2) you could reset Your ecu by using a obt2 code reader.(3) you must drive your vehicle For 20 minutes for your ecu to relearn its readings from the new egr valve/sensor.............."BUKUBU!LT" B I G Island HAWAII

ny the part were the fuel goes in ;)

it located in very bad area between the firewall and the intake manifold,actually it is on the intake manifold.if you want to reach the egr valve yo have to go under the car and take off exhaust pipe before the catalytic converter.

Its OBD1

A car battery has a limited lifetime, and that lifetime is shortened if you life in a part of the world that sees a serious winter where you use lights, heater, heavy cold starts, etc. I replace my batteries every 3 years before they start crapping out on me. 3 years seems to be about as much abuse as they can take in New England. If you suspect your battery is no longer capable of holding a charge, you can take it in to Pep Boys or Auto Zone and they will test it for you for free and either boost charge it for you or sell you a new one. Like I said, if your battery is 3 years old or more and the Pep Boy tells you it's shot, he probably ISN't scamming you into a new battery. And for 50-70 bucks, it's cheap insurance against a 150-dollar tow. after it stops working

I have no idea which one is the best, but I have a Mazda6 and Duracell works great in it. It you get a name brand battery, Duracell, Interstate, you should be fine.

Transmission reservoir? Are you referring to the transmission oil pan? If so it is located on the underside of the transmission and looks like a square type box painted black bolted to the bottom of the transmission.

throttle postioning sensor is bad

My next guess, in this form of troubleshooting, would be a wiring harness problem / fuse problem / pass through or plug problem. IE The computer is telling something to work, but the signal is not getting to the right place.

This is an easy task. You need 3 things: a roll of dark masking tape, blue works really well, a medium to large flat screwdriver a #2 works well, and a wall with a level flat driveway, your garage door may work if you have a level flat driveway.

Best to do this when its dark or getting dark, NOT in bright sunlight.

SET dashboard headlight adjustment knob (feature on several Mazda) to position "0". All positions but "0" interfere by compensating. Set it to "0".

Drive your car close to the wall, about 1 foot away works well.

Turn your headlights on. You will see across the wall the top of your lights, below bright above much less bright.

NOW, place a strip of dark masking tape on the wall along that edge of light.

That tape is your Mark for adjusting your lights level.

Carefully and safely back the car straight about 10 to 15 feet, if possible.

Notice where your headlight boundary is now relative to the masking tape.

If it is right along the tape your adjustment is normal, and OK.

If it is much higher that may bother oncoming drivers and should be lowered.

If much below the masking tape its too low, unsafe, you may not see hazards and should be adjusted to raise it.

Be sure engine is turned OFF and headlights are on, be SAFE!

To adjust, Open hood, look for white adjustment toothy wheel with six sided adjustment Slot, located right behind the headlight electrical connector.

NOTE: in some models you may have a plastic snap-on cover above it, unsnap to access the Adjustment with your screwdriver. Use a flashlight to see it.

Insert screwdriver blade carefully into the slot. If you have a proper size screwdriver it should fit in easily and snug, do NOT force it, if loose or tight get another different screwdriver that will fit properly. Do NOT damage the slot, its plastic!

While watching the light on the wall relative to masking tape turn the screwdriver, counterclockwise to RAISE, clockwise to LOWER. Be careful and know it may take from 2 to 5 screwdriver turns to notice movement of the light.

When the light boundary is right at the masking tape you lights are Level.

When necessary do this for each headlight. Same procedure.

Good job, close your hood and drive the car and notice the difference.

If you have dashboard headlight level adjust feature try it, moving from "0" to "1", "2" etc should LOWER the headlight level. This allows you to lower your headlights for city driving and set it to "0" for open road driving where you need more light coverage ahead to see road hazards.

The water pump is located behind the timing belt cover and is driven by the timing belt. You need to reove it to gain access to the water pump.

Should be just below the trans fluid level dipstick. There is also a red connector on the hose coming from the air intake tube.

Actually, I am using the Unleaded 95 for my Rx 8 (1.3 192CH) 2008. I hope that it's not bad for the RX8 ..

No. The only way you would be able to is if there was an access panel underneath rear seats or in the trunk. But for a 98 Mazda 626 this access panel does not exist. I know from experience. And if you don't have tools and patience, I would recommend not doing it yourself. Because of the way the tank sits, you have to remove the back half of the exhaust to be able to drop the tank. At first it looks as simple as just 2 straps, but once you take those off, you will find yourself doing a lot of more work than that. So if you have experience and patience I say do it yourself but getting the assistance from a friend or local shop will make it a lot easier on you.

The belt has worn on the edges and creates friction which causes squealing. Also, sometimes when a belt is cold it will squeal.

I have a Mazda Cronos 1994,the drivers seat belt has broken - the one on the right,small one.Where can I buy another one.
