Michael Wright says:

Dumb question but where did you go for your parts? Auto zone want like $200
for all the parts

Just bought a Protege5 and on the way home i had hesitation during takes
off, light load while cruising, and sometimes with the brake depressed
during stops. Eventually the car threw a P0300 code, after searching the
web i found your videos and this morning i just did everything in this
video (plus, wires, coil packs, and PCV valve) and sure enough when i went
to drive it right after it drove amazing, no shutters or hesitation during
the test drive. Keeping my fingers crossed but it looks to be that i have
fixed the problem thanks to you!! Thanks a ton for these videos people may
not show their gratitude but your views should speak for themselves! On
behalf of the internet “Thank you”

I found out it was the cruise control solenoid, that thing is damn huge!

Mac Dezzo says:

This probly wont help to fix 303 n 421? Would it?

Johnnysshop says:

Try “ignition coil”. I just checked AutoZone and they have them listed as
that. Thanks for watching!

Johnnysshop says:

It sure will.

I just want to say I am glad I found this video because I just picked up a
02 mazda 5 2.0L and there aren’t too many help vids for this car. Im used
to GM never owned Japanese and I couldn’t figure out where the darn plugs
were. WOW they are right there. FTR I just bought the car for $700
184,000km and everything works great on the car, only rust. Passed
emissions too. Anyway glad I know someone with basically same car..Im sure
I’ll be back with questions lol.

Royce Barber says:

The car in the vid is not crappy at all, btw. I drive a Mazda and didn’t
mean for my words to come out like that lol.

Obdulia Careaga says:

What is the proper name for those black plugs above the spark plugs that
you changed? I’ve done a tuneup before on my boyfriends car and I didn’t
know we could change those. I’m trying to find them at AutoZone but I don’t
know what they’re called. You call them coils but I don’t see those a on
their website. Thanks!

Johnnysshop says:

Typically.

Johnnysshop says:

Thanks for watching, glad I could help!

Christophe Z. says:

i brought my 1999 Mazda protege to the shop today because of a Misfire
cylinder 2 code…but they could not find a misfire!!! they did reset the
code, and it is not flashing anymore….Should i replace my Plug wire sets
and the ignition coil as well as the pcv valve just to make sure? Car has
1.6L engine and 230,000 miles

nathan pearson says:

very lucky in nether burnt igniters out blew a 10a fuse under dash thank
god

Johnnysshop says:

Yeah, my daughter. She knows how to change her tire and oil 🙂 My dad never
really showed me anything, I was there just for him to yell at and get
tools. LOL

nathan pearson says:

i had a broken wire coming from a plug going to coil it has touched other
wire and sparked now no spark thinking ecu

Jaraud Morris says:

Tryin this soon as I get home!

Royce Barber says:

I wasn’t sure how to replace my PCV Valve…but now I’m going to do it for
ALL my friends with crappy old cars!

Johnnysshop says:

My kid just moved out but I will try to get a pic when she comes over
again.

yyyyy785 says:

Excellent Video! I’ve got a 2001 Protege 1.6L. I’ll do the sparkplug change
now – your video gave me confidence. Thank you!

Jason Reyes says:

hey, i have a 2003 , protege, and the conectors, on the coils broke, i need
a pic or video of the sequence of the wires on each coil. thanx

Johnnysshop says:

Thanks, I appreciate it!

Johnnysshop says:

Thanks for watching and glad I could help!

Al Vigland says:

This was exactly what I was looking for and after watching your entire
video, I went outside and replaced the two coils, four plugs, and wires in
35 minutes. Not bad for a rookie, but would have spent a TON more time
without your helpful video. THANKS!.
