Go to www.iluvmyrx7.com and donwload the tech manual (its the real thing from mazda) for your year 7 and there should be the best help you can find, trust me... Its 800 pages so you wont want to try to print it. I burned a CD and brought it to kinkos.

A code 71 is a problem with the circuit on your front secondary injector.

Go here for fault codes:

Its probably just shorted out or unplugged or something like that, as I don't think its that common for the secondary injector to just die. You're probably gonna have to rip into it to see if you can find the problem. Unless someone has any other ideas....
