im startin to regret buyin a probe

[jfais1717]

the probe i just bought needs some minor work. around $400 in parts. expensive parts. and the list keeps growin. the check engine light was on so i checked it. both of my variable resonant intake solenoids are bad along with my coolant temp sensor. all of these parts are obsolete from the dealer. anyone know where i can get these items new? cause its lookin like it'll be the junkyard for me.

you could probably get the temp sensor from auto zone or advanced, not sure about the others, though.

im not going to lie, its a weird car to buy parts for, i glance through stuff like that when im workin at advance, and since its a mazda motor, the parts are pretty expensive da pick 'n pull sounds like a good place to start

that won't even buy a tire for you will it

[sstony]

the parts will definitely be cheaper aftermarket--but if there is anything dealer specific, let me know and i'll ask our parts dept here at mazda

[hungryjack]

I feel the need, the need for a 5.0 swap!!!!!

One DOT, 2 none DOT.

yeah well ive had it for a liitle over a week. and i called mazda and they said 130 my cost for both. i work at tire kingdom so i get a little better price. but yeah tony if you can get it cheaper let me know.

[shock6791]

which TK do you work at?

[Turbonium]

I told you in another thread if you would listen that you can get those easily at a junkyard. If you can't be creative and fix your own shit with old parts you need to get rid of the probe they are not beginners cars.

You can dump A LOT of money into any car........ $3500 mehbeh?

[jfais1717]

yeah i work on the one at cap. cir. ne. and yeah i came in today when you were there. nice car slmd. turbonium, im not a first timer. ive rebuilt engines before. i would just rather have new parts that i know will last awhile appose to some used one that might last a week or a month. the only part im a begginer to is vris(which i now know quite a bit about). thank you for your concern though:heather20

[undercoverZ-28]

appose = opposed ???

[Turbonium]

Well the shitty thing about getting new parts for a probe is that in 01 they stopped carrying/making parts for them.
