my car caught on fire, but im glad

Hrm... bet you'd never think somone would be happy to have their car catch on fire. Luckily my boss had a thermos of coffee with him and it wasn't really a HUGE fire. But that's not why I'm glad. During the process of repair I have discovered multiple problems with my car I otherwise wouldn't of known about. Such as my O2 sensor being fried and my oil metering valves being worthless, and that's what brought me to this forum. I need some valves. All 4 of my valves don't work at all and that's what explains why I've been leaving smoke clouds behind where ever I go. So my question is, where can I get some. I've been searching google and ebay but to no avail have I found any information on them. So if anyone could help me out. Thanks in advance.

P.S. 88 GXL N/A

Umm... Rotarys don't have valves. Are you talking about the 5th and 6th ports maybe? Oh wait, do you mean you need new MOP stuff? You could premix if all that stuff went out. Block it off first tho.

I think he might be talking about the oil injectors or maybe the OMP lines.

I'm talking about the Oil Metering Pump valves on the engine and intake. I've heard then called multiple things, whatever they are I need some.

Dealer is the best place to get the oil injectors, I hear they're 50 bones a piece.. yikes.
OMP Lines, I would HIGHLY suggest getting yourself a set from scalliwag here on the forum. He makes some SS Braided lines that cost about 20$ more than what the dealer or mazdatrix charges.

1st, you can find the oil injectors at the wrecking yard fairly easily, i could easily find a dozen of them in an hours time tomorrow if i tried.

2nd, you would be better off switching over to a premix setup anyways, it is better for your engine and safer for it as well.

I'm parting out an 86 (same series engine). I'll send you all the oil injectors for $40 shipped?

Really, it's better for your engine to just run premix though.
