    Might be worth a drive down to Mazda Heaven in Mansfield. Give them a call and see if they have one.

    If it tests bad, I suppose you could get a resistor to put on the connector in place of the ISC, then block off the tube in the ISC that the AIR passes through. Only problem is that your car would idle low when cold which could cause it to stall. One the car was warmed up, it should run perfectly though.

    Did you test the one on your car to confirm that's the problem? That's the first thing you need to do, then see if someone here can help you, or ebay. 55.00 isn't exactly a bargain.

    it is compared to the 250 for a new one ...... i couldn't get a consistent reading at all on mine. the gauge just went nutz ... my neighbor (whose gauge i borrowed) said it should never do that .... i checked EBAY none only for the 1.8, same with Jim and the fixit guy with the ebay store ... someone pmd me a couple different names and numbers but when i called them all they had was for the 1.8 not the 1.6 like i have , i did notice something else that struck me as wierd though i have to pull my clutch almost all the way out to get the rpm to come down , if i did that in my z it would stall,

    i did in my looking over today find a hose with a hairline crack in it but could not feel anything escaping from it with the car running, to be safe i will be taking the throttle body assembly apart and cleaning it tomm along with replacing all the hoses leading up to it just to be safe, maybe i will luck out

    Spray WD40 on the hose with the crack and see if it affects your rpm's. Check your other vacuum hoses this way as well.

    In the case of vacuum leaks, there will not be any air escaping. In fact, the air will be sucked in through the crack. Be sure to check the brake booster hose, as this is a major component of the vacuum system. Any cracks in vacuum hoses will definately leak. The small ones are really cheap to replace, so it may not be a bad idea to get 6 feet of hose at vato zone and replace anything you can reach.

    well i checked all the hoses again .... and the one i saw the crack in was a coolant hose , found out the hard way . all the ones leading to the throttle body are crack free , pulled off throttle body and cleaned it out a little bit it wasn't that bad, had vatozone test my tps they said it was fine so. on the bottom of the throttle body assembly the IAC box was all melted up ... not a good sign so i guess i will be ordering one from vatozone unless anyone has an extra


    .... also i pulled the engine codes and i got a 17 ... engine detects to rich or too lean ...

    damnit cleaning the TB just made it worse .... my IAC is on order though should be here within a few days ...
