where abouts in dorset are you ?
im based in dorchester but we could do the conversion for you where i work i am doing it to my white babby as well lol
Thanks, Going to attempt it with one of the ones off of ebay, its the RH one which has gone according to the error codes. Going to attempt it on my next day off and hopefully the engine will be running perfect for the 1st time.
Isn't your pump meant to have a live feed all the time so that it can feed the injectors with fuel? It's gonna stop if you dis-connect it.
Maybe your OE live feed is, immobilised or a fuse or relay in the fuel pump circuit is not function correctly….!
Cheers mate,,, new t'all this,, reckon fuel line relay most likely,,, gonna try a new one,, anywhere besides mazda that these are available? 64.00 quids plus vat here in bonnie scootland
Right, she canny take no more captain - wallet stops spending on the 3 here, so any takers please let me know - have put in sell section - it's a sad sad day, but picking up the new ride on Thursday - ever so slightly more reliable, and cheaper to fix etc… drives like a treat too - a spanking focus st170 - mmmm 8)
Excellent, cheers bud. I think i will do as you suggested and try some more treatments. Any suggestions on good makes? As i said before i have tried a couple. One which required an oil change, which i did, and replaced the filter. And another one which didnt required an oil change as it was obviously less vicious.
If i can't fix it with fluid treatment and end up having to open her up and remove cams and the like would it be worth investing in uprated cams of some decription? Obvioulsy this would require opening up the other bank too.
Cheers again
@4a0d5ce591=Mooneggs:
there are some online mazda workshop manuals located at mx-3.com that were what I used when I changed my timing belt…
thanks mate,
i think we need links or posts for this kind of stuff on this forum.
i use this forum mainly because its uk,pluss i cant read that mx3.com,the red writings hard to see and hurts my eyes.
i will have a look.
thanks
Daryl,
Its all good, the different colour connectors dont mean anthing different, it will still work the same, I think it might be something to do with the age/exact model type but it all looks good… get soldering :twisted:
P.s. remember you need to desolder the top of the legs by the chip too as there are tracks there also!
P.p.s My spare ECU has the grey connectors and works fine.
Jono
