(Thread Starter) |   Not Ranked : 0 score  Mazdaspeed Protege idle issue My protege has had an idle issue for awhile now. Most of the time it idles low, less than 800 RPMs. When I accelerate and then let off the gas the RPMs bottoms out or the car dies from dropping so far. Any ideas? I've had some look it over a while back but the morons had no idea. I had one O2 sensor replaced. My intercooler tube looks like it has a shit patch job on it and it could be leaking air. No idea? |
