I Just Changed The Plugs On The Back Side Of The Engine, When I Took Them Out, I Took The Egi Fuse Out, And Tried Unflooding It, And It Still Didnt Start Up, There Is Spark, Should I Do The Same With The Front 2 Plugs??? If So, I Need To Do That Tomorrow, When I Had The Other Plugs Out, And I Was Cranking It, There Was A Faint Smell Of Gas. Hey Rotaomi, Should I Go Outside And Try Taking Out The Fuel Pump Relay Right Now And Cranking It??? And Do I Need To Put The Relay Back In As Im Cranking The Car??

youll also have to put a lil oil in the leading holes when you put the plugs back in so that you'll build compression again.

I'm thinkin you may NOT be getting fuel........connect the F/P and GND posts in the diagnostic box near the battery....turn the switch on and listen for the pump running at the gas filler lid. If you dont hear it, the pump is bad. If the pump is running, try starting it leaving the jumper wire on.....if it starts, either the circuit relay in the fuse box near the battery is bad, or the fuel pump relay is bad.......

Dude, i had the same problem like 2 weeks ago. I had no clue so i took it to mazda. They said it was just a little "bushing" under the clutch pedal, and 138 bucks later I was golden. Just a suggestion, as mine would not turn over either.

PS, i would have no clue how to fix that.
