my 87 turbo has been running roughly after it coosl down a bit. runs really lean and sputters an shakes. Its fine when its warm but really doesnt like being cold or only slightly warm. I'm going to test the Water thermo valve because that sounds like a really good place to start. BUT i couldn't find one on mazdatrix's web sight, other than the dealership any one know where i can get a NEW one?

 

It's doubtful that anywhere besides the dealership will have that.

 

I just got one from Rotary Performance. Call them. It isn't listed on their website but they carry them.

 

jj, price?

 

$73 if i remember correctly....I bought a lot of other stuff too.

You are talking about the thermowax on the throttle body right?

 

yes, yes i am

 

you should bea ble to find a good used one for dirt cheap id think.

 

I got two actually one spare on my desk (I think) i'm going to test it one of these days. Ive just been busy as hell trying to sell one car, and buying another.

If the one i test works i'll swap them out and see how that works.
