Fab,

You can obtain a "factory" manual from your local Mazda dealer. They're expensive and not that impressive. Your best manual will be a Haynes 1st gen manual. Those you can get over the net or at most auto supply houses, like Pep Boys, Auto Zone, etc.

Denny, from the 'ol corncrib....

Thanks, but all my wiring has been tucked away and I have 4 bosch coils, TII motor with a TO4, FMIC, etc in my 1st Gen. The original tach, water temp etc don't work, so I need to know what wire is what to hook it up, then I need to install my other guages, which I got on the weekend, so I know what my motor is up too.

Thanks, but I can't get a manual before the weekend, and I want to hook up the wiring this weekend, so I can see what the motor is doin, and I need to give the highway a few more black marks.

Anyone got a manual on the web would be handy for this weekend.

Thanks

What year do you have? I have a '85 shop manual. If I undestand what your asking about, I can make a copy of the specific wiring diagram, scan and e-mail.

I have a '79 model. Series 1.

Thanks for the post about your manual on ebay, but I live in australia, I don't think I will get it by the weekend, and the postage will kill the price.

If anyone can scan them, please send to fabspeed@hotmail.com

Thanks all, I wait in anticipation.

If you lived in Australia, I would do it, but since yours overseas I won't bother, but thanks anyway.

Any else in Aust or over the net.
