My '86 n/a still has the cold start assist tank/system intact.
Is there any advantage to removing it or, should I just leave it as is?
Thanks for your opinions.

It won't hurt anything to leave it, but it won't help anything either. Mazda issued a TSB in 1990 that they were removing the system, and instructing dealerships how to remove the system on earlier vehicles.

 

Thanks for the reply!
I didn't think there was any down-side to leaving it as it is but, it's nice to know for sure.

I put whiskey in my Cold start assist bottle.
Now when I start the car it goes directly to a Bar!
Seriously though,I just removed the Jug,along with the Part on the manifold(88 N/A) and used a small piece of aluminum as a block off plate.

 

Ah. Is the correct way you advised? If so I have a 13B T swap. Does removing the part on the manifold this still apply?

And I've seen people use their windshield washer fluid container to dispense "beverages" .

 

there's a little "do-hickey" on the manifold you take off and use a block off plate on.

Ya.when I was about 20 or so,Me and a buddy used to cruise in his Firenza...lol!!.
It had Flames!..hahaha!
Washer jug full of rye and coke...
press button..Slurp!

 

Ah, ok. Thank you I will look into the do-hickey on the manifold, remove it and install a block off plate.

Ha ha ha! Yep to be young, those were the days of crazy times.
