Nope. Just cruising home from work one day last month it started smoking out the exhaust and pushing oil out all 3 vented catch cans.

Been a while. The new motor lost compression In cyl 2 with around 2700 miles on it. Machine shop that assembled it and did the machine work is no help. So the car is sitting in my driveway for now til I figure out what I wanna do with it.

That's pretty normal since the injectors are deactivated on decel when in gear. I'll see lows in that range especially when clutching in after engine braking.

That tool was thrown in the trash the day of the install back in June of 2018. At that time, all rear main seals ordered from mazda came with the special service tool. So I threw it away

Took a trip back to northeast Ohio this weekend for @Realgib3 wedding. Went 345 miles on 12 gallons on e48 on the way up there, averaging 80mph and giving it a few pulls. Which was nice. On the way back, hit 1k miles on the motor and also rolled 100k miles on the chassis. Time to switch over...

A bad crank position sensor will have similar issues, just FYI, Minus the pump not priming. So I'd imagine it's the pump and not the crank sensor

Sounds like a bad fuel pump. It's shutting off once it's hot.

If you're going thru kozmic, you're in good hands. I'd imagine Justin (freektune) has his hand in your tune. The kozmic dp i have is part of one of the edge autosport PTE turbo kits they used to offer back in the day. Cpe exhaust manifold, kozmic dump tube and kozmic down pipe with your choice...

I tune myself. I also have the cs TB lol

This is awesome!

i think im gonna stop right here and just dial in the fuel to get afr flat until i get this car on a dyno. Being on 10mm head studs, TQ needs to stay under 550 for any sort of longevity. Once i have it on a dyno (which may be a bit since im recovering from the labor cost of the build/swap), then...

Working ebcs came in the mail from Eric today...

Lkq stamp on the block. Came from a junkyard, likely out of a wrecked car

What cams you have? I have none of these issues with an HTP 4" intake with no air straightener and kelford 247-C cams with idle at 1000rpm

Welp, @Awafrican deleted my last 2 posts trying to merge them lol. So here we go. Got a fresh log in today on my base map. The ebcs decided to work on this pull...but I still have a replacement coming from Eric Yarbrough. Fueling needs tidied up, but better to be on the rich side for...

It is. The ebcs took a shit, so I'm stuck on spring pressure lol.

Picked the ms6 up on Monday! Lots of varying rpm, engine braking, and spring pressure pulls getting the rings seated. About 250 miles in so far and so far so good aside from my ebcs taking a shit. So I'll be ordering up a replacement here sooner than later. Engine bay tidied up compared to...

I'll be right around where you were power wise (mid 600ish) since I'm still running 10mm head studs and have to keep tq under 550, so I have hope it'll do me well. Also update. Went on Monday to pick up the car, and came back without it. They didn't want to fire it up for more than 30 seconds...

@Littleloogy had a thread on this on msf. Gen 2 specific. Unfortunately can't find it in the archives. I reached out to James on fb to see if he's still got the info, but it looks like he hasn't been on there in a while
