Well, finally got an update. . My mechanic that was going to work on this got swamped and didn't want to take it on, just because he has other minor stuff that he can do and make more money. So it sat for about a year, since I have another vehicle to drive. So I took it to another shop that...

Just to give an update, my mechanic is swamped at the moment. He says he has started it up a couple of times and he said that it seems like a blown head gasket. He is going to get to it in the next week or two. I fortunately have another vehicle to drive, so it hasnt been a hurry. I will...

how bad was that to get fixed? What did you have to pay for that?

Thanks for the reply, I'm towing to the mechanic after memorial day(cause he is backed up). I guess I will then find the extent of the damage, wish me luck!

I talk to my family mechanic and he said that it is possible that I just have a blown head gasket. Is there a way to tell if it is the head gasket and not something else? It turns over with no knocking and weird sounds.

Does anyone know if any 2.3L turbo engine will work? I know they put those in cx7s too. Would a 2008 go into a 2010?

How far "into it" would I have to get to find out? I probably need some help from somebody who knows what they are doing. I can do a lot of stuff, but rebuilding the engine is a little over my head.

I don't know if the engine can be rebuilt or if I have to get a new one?

Well, heres the news. Got my compression tester. Cyl. 1 190, cyl 2 185, cyl 3 75, cyl 4 0.

Forgot to mention that the Cobb tuner is showing a P304 code

It was modded by me and tuned by DIZZY tuners. It was running really good for about a year now, but was burning a quite a bit of oil(Which there were no visible leaks). When I had it to the floor on the highway, it seems like something "blew" and a black puff of smoke went out the back and has...

It is modded, i have a cobb tuner. The engine is not getting too hot, i have ordered a compression check kit, but it will be a week or two to arrive.

hello everyone, I did a bad thing. My Speed3 is having a misfire on cyl 4. I was in it yesterday and was getting on it on the highway, when I got a puff of black smoke out the back and it has been running really bad since, misfiring on cyl 4. I'm guessing I blew something up, but not sure...

hello everyone, I am new to this forum, but had been a member of some of the other mazda forums. I am in Cincinnati, Ohio and am getting spring fever here to get my mazda back on the road.
