Front end vibrates at high
Hi there,
When front-end vibration is more apparant at higher speeds, this usually indicates your front wheels are badly out of balance. This can occur if you regularly drive on unsealed roads, or the wheels have hit the curbside etc.
Have your local tire fitter balance your wheels for you - this involves clipping tiny weights to your wheels, to keep the wheel centred during rotation.
Cheers,
Scott

1994 mazda navajo manual transmission
The clutch plate or clutch adjustment seems to be the most likely thing in that it is not disengaging fully. Check the adjustment. There should be about 1" play at the top of the pedal movement and then the clutch should start releasing about halfway down. The other thing it could be is worn gear linkages and joint bushes. Have someone move the gear lever and check for play along the gear change train from the gear lever to the gearbox selector input.
MY 1996 MAZDA ETUDE 1600
If the model that you have is OHC with cam working directly onto valves via lifters and you have nil compression in these two cylinders then remove the valve cover and turn over until the camshaft lobes for each cylinder in turn are pointing up,slide a feeler gauge under the heel of the cam lobe between it and the tappet,should only be .1-.3mm,especially if a hydraulic lifter(cam follower).If the gap is large the valve are bent.Similar way to test if the head has rocker arms,but essentially when the valve is closed ther should be only the slightest hint of clearance between rocker arm and valve tip.
Another test we do here is as above turn until both lobes point up on OHC.Valves for this cylinder should now be closed.I knock the centre out of an old sparkplug and fit a airline to it.scew it into the cylinder to be tested and fire the air into it.If air heard out of exhaust,the exhaust valve is problem,if out of inlet area then it is inlet valve,if heard in sump and out of dipstick tube then rings/piston at fault.Having a badly leaking inlet manifold gasket can give a similar run fault but compression will be ok.I hope this helps otherwise get back to me with your findings.

Same problem I have on my '90 Cavalier; first check you tranny fluid. If you don't know what to look for, find someone
who does.
Don't let a mechanic tell you you need a transmission right
off the bat, you might not. If the car is low on trans fluid (due to
leaks) or the fluid is bad (burnt, contaminated), you could have the
same sympthoms. However, if the control units in your transmission that
are associated with gear are bad, you may need to have the
tranny removed and rebuilt. Also could check the solenoids, actuator and torque converter.

1.mazda 5 rear shocks leaking
What you doing with this vehicle driving over a mountain every day ?? if they keep leaking then remove them and drill a small hole about two and half centimetres from the top of the piston and then thread the hole and make a small bolt with a metal flat washer with a rubber one under that ,then refill shocker with oil and refit ,you may have to push the piston in to get the oil in though but not on every type ,anyway refit shockers ,then when vehicle statrs to bounce again just refill with oil in situ ,so you dont need to buy new ones all the time just refill them ,easy just like the good old cars 40 yrs ago .
What are the settings for
If you are not too mech minded I would suggest you leave the timing belt to the experts. Also I could not describe this procedure in this forum as it would take considerable time. You can download car manuals off the net also.
Check engine light on with a P102 code.
Most likely u need to pay attention toward the MAP ( airflow) sensor. Common cause in Nissans. I know u have Mazda, check ur comprehensive warranty status, if valid , take it to the dealer.
