readjust the adjuster bar at the top between the shoes turn the star wheel until the thread is all used up This is the auto adjuster and will have to be readjusted when the drum has been fitted.

If it is turning over then you have a fuel problem. The things to check are the fuel pump, fuel filter and fuel pressure. If you ran this out of fuel then you will need to hit the fuel reset button.

it should not need more that 10 amps

First I would check for any 'codes'. You say "it will not start"....does this mean that the engine will turn over and not run, or you turn the key and nothing happens? Really need more information.

When you say everything goes dead are we talking all lights, radio, wipers? If so, main power or ground cables bad or fusible link. If just engine, check coil, ignition module, crank/cam position sensor.

Dirty air filter, dirty throttle body...try 2 bottles of gas line fuel injector cleaner...has your car been parked for awhile? Heet gas additive will work on any low gas tank sludge that you may have. Hope this helps.

Did you swap out throttle bodies? You may need to replace the PCM if you did. I don't think there's a way to rechip but then again maybe...

It can be low fuel pressure issue or clogged fuel pump. Or its engine related issues,---------------Check the help link mentioned below to troubleshoot the problem: ------

heck for 2 bolts at the lower edge near the floor if no bolts push lower seat inwards and lift up it should pop up , use a large screwdriver.

its a switch over device.

There are numerous reasons why the pcm will cut the earth to A/c. I doubt the pcm is to blame. If you're A/c gas is low, or if it has too much gas inserted, the A/c will not be actuated by the pcm. This information is gathered by the high pressure switch on the high pressure line of the A/c. Normally it is a blocked evaporator, too much or too little gas, blocked dryer. This Mazda has very fine tolerances and should be checked thoroughly. The reason the pcm cuts the earth is to protect the A/c pump against running without oil and most of the above explanations will cause that. I think you should get a second opinion.

Have you checked the fuel pressure?

Check to make sure the cams are spinning sounds like the timing belt might be broken

there is no clutch adjustment. If it is slipping then the problem may be in the master cylinder compensating port and the fix is a new clutch master cylinder (cheapest fix) or bleed the system first (even cheaper fix)

This seems a little vague, but usually we he I get a tribute crank no start it's the fuel pump. You could have someone bang on the bottom of the gas tank while you crank the engine over to see if that gets it started..... Just make sure the theft light is not on...
