I’m using a spring cap for both, it doesn’t matter as there is now where for the pressure relief to go anyway. I had a similar problem and just needed to adjust idle air control screw. Should be instructions on the Oracle Why do you think that there is no where for the pressure relief to go? They w...

Has anyone got a part number for an alternator for a 2.5 24v?
Your other option is to search for a Mazda MX6 alternator, as that will be, or should be for a 2.5l engine.

Assume those levels are right. Any ot...

Also noticed that the top hose from the radiator is deflated but goes back to normal after running.
Do you have enough water in the system, or a faulty thermostat, as that sounds like an airlock?

Hi,
have you checked the water levels? Remove the flat cap ( not the sprung one) on the engine, and check that the water is to the brim

Re: Cutting a hole to access the fuel pump

Do you believe that the relay is clicking or clicking and staying engaged?
