Set your idle

otherwise i wouldnt mind coming to help you pm your phone and ill bring my manual to help you out

some one on mx6.com said to rebuild my distributor

Iv'e got the same engine in my protege. I'll check the service manuals to see what it says about the whole shutting off deal. Also does it idle low sometimes when you're coming to stop? If that's happening, replace the spark plugs. I go through 2 or 3 sets a year b/c of that. The FS engine eats spark plugs, it goes lean at wide open throttle anywhere above 5k rpms.

wel the distributor jus went out today so i have to get a new one now anyway car wont start. so if anyone got a spare workin disty let me know
