03 mazda mpv misfire & CEL blinking even after new plugs & coils.

It sounds like you are still not getting the desired spark in the cylinder. A couple of other things to check are the plug wires and more importantly, check the gap on the new plugs. The gap listed for that year of MPV is 0.054 inches. You local auto parts store should have a gap tool, if you don't have one already. Even if they came pre-gapped, it would not hurt to check and make sure they are within that gap spec. There is also another suggestion to check the cam positioning sensor. If it is not sensing correct, the coil pack won't fire at the correct time.

I changed the spark plugs on my 2004 Mazda6s V6. The car idles great and is smooth at highway speeds. Really anything above 2K rpm it works great. When it tries to accelerate between 1400rpm and 2200rpm it...

I would check to see if your distributor cap has a crack on it somewhere close to the diodes,and you can check for a bad plug wire also,I do this when its dark so I can locate it easier,most of the time its the boot that is dried and cracked,amd is arching on the eng. block.
