Hi,
Welcome everyone I have just got a Mazda Rx8 2005. I have tried searches and am literally going in circles with conflicting advice so hopefully someone can help me.
So I got the car and it wouldn't start at first so I changed out the coil packs, leads and plugs and cleaned the throttle body then the car started up straight away and idled perfectly until warm (about half way on temp gauge) then just died and would not restart. After reading the forums It was pointing towards a blocked/faulty cat...I let the car cool down and then it would restart I looked under the car after 2 minutes and the cat was glowing red!! I though this was the problem.
Tonight I removed the cat section started the car again and when the temp got half way it cut out then will not start again.
Any ideas I really want to get out and drive the car soon!
I do have a compression test from mazda which means nothing to me it came with the car.
Many Thanks
Neal
