(Thread Starter) |   Not Ranked : 0 score  $1200 Mazdaspeed 6 i am unsure if this is the right place to post this but i will give it a shot. I just bought a speed6 that is a bit worse for wear but the price seemed like a great deal for a project car. Mods: Cob Sri Magnaflow exhaust Turbosmart BOV The Good -Car runs and drives -Transmission and clutch are good -Interior is in good shape .......The Bad -A bit of oil leak around valve cover -Rust over back wheel wells -back bumper needs to be replaced (small fender bender) -5 engine codes (1 pending) -Stutter at anything above 3500rpm I have looked through the forums for information and plan on dealing with all of these issues myself, i am just posting too see if i have missed an steps and if you guys have any input. Codes: p0304 (misfire cylinder 4) pending p0401 (EGR) p0138 (02 sensor) p2187 (system to lean at idle) p0300 (random misfire) Solutions: -EGR valve cleaning/delete could deal with stuttering/misfire -Spark plugs/coil packs also could help with misfire -Car has aftermarket BOV which could be the reason for p2187 -injectors could be an issue as well Those are the easier solutions i have come up with, i plan on replacing the plugs and do an egr clean and unplug at the same time. Is there anything i am missing? I would greatly appreciate any input. -Thankyou! Sorry if i haven't posted in the correct forum. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score How many miles are on that motor? I would almost be tempted to just junk that motor and drop in a brand new long block from edge and never worry.

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score The car only has 150000km on it, besides all of the nonsense it drives really well under 3500rpm. I think the engine is salvagable from what I have seen. I work from home so I don't need to drive a bunch, the car is sitting until I get the stutter issue sorted. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score You'll know if the engine is salvageable after your compression and leak down test.

| Not Ranked : 0 score Does it cut at 3500, or it just sucks going over 3500? And you happen to be in Canada or something?

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score I haven't got to into the throttle, but it has a stutter then seems to get boost after a fairly big shake. I hope I don't have to do an engine out swap, hopefully I can capitalize on a great deal and have a good winter vehicle. I will do a compression check in the next couple of days. Hopefully switching the plugs and eve clean will remedy some of the issues. Thanks again for the suggestions guys. |
