Got my car back today.. same problem

She got a full tune up, all belts changed, a new master cylinder, etc. Still though when I drive for a bit (till warm) and park it and go do sumthing for about an hour.. When I try to start her up again, the rpms go up to about 1000 then they drop and stall. It only did it about 3 times, where as it use to do it arount 8 or 10. Any ideas how to solve this? Ricks Rotary in Pleasanton said its in perfect mechanical condition..
Thanks alot,
Brett

there is a cold start resivoir fill with a mixture of coolant and water...i think its 25% water and 75% coolant....its usually against the fire wall oposite of the master cylinder...if thats not it check the idol air control

Remove the cold start assist stuff. Its useless and doesnt work. Mazda sent out a bulletin to unplug it a LONG time ago.
