Can’t get any easier than this. Changing plugs, wire, coil and PCV valve on a Mazda Protege. Error code P0421 and P0300. Just some work I had to do on my kid…

What tools are needed to just change the ignition coils?
os this the same for progete5?
LINKS to the parts please.
Thanks
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!
This probly wont help to fix 303 n 421? Would it?
Try “ignition coil”. I just checked AutoZone and they have them listed as
that. Thanks for watching!
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.
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.
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!
Typically.
Thanks for watching, glad I could help!
Thanks for watching!
Very lucky!
At 0:25 whats the big canister thing just in front of the oil dipstick?
Very informative and great video, thanks mate
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
very lucky in nether burnt igniters out blew a 10a fuse under dash thank
god
LOL
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
i had a broken wire coming from a plug going to coil it has touched other
wire and sparked now no spark thinking ecu
Tryin this soon as I get home!
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!
My kid just moved out but I will try to get a pic when she comes over
again.
First
Excellent Video! I’ve got a 2001 Protege 1.6L. I’ll do the sparkplug change
now – your video gave me confidence. Thank you!
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
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Thanks for watching and glad I could help!
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!.
i have the 1.6 and it have 2 coils
