TO LOOSEN THE BELT TENSIONER PULLEY ASSEMBLY, THEN POSITION A CAMSHAFT BELT ADJUSTER TOOL T74P-6254-A OR EQUIVALENT ON THE TENSION SPRING ROLL PIN AND RETRACT THE BELT TENSIONER AWAY FROM THE TIMING BELT.TIGHTEN THE ADJUSTMENT BOLT TO LOCK THE TENSIONER IN THE RETRACTED POSITION. INSTALL NEW TIMING OVER THE CRANKSHAFT SPROCKET AND THEN COUNTERCLOCKWISE OVER THE AUXILIARY AND CAMSHAFT SPROCKETS MAKING SURE THE LUGS ON THE BELT PROPERLY ENGAGE THE SPROCKET TEETH ON THE PULLEYS. BECAREFUL NOT TO ROTATE THE PULLEYS WHEN INSTALLING THE BELT.RELEASE THE TIMING BELT TENSIONER PULLEY ALLOWING THE TENSIONER TO TAKE UP THE SLACK.

Bleed the clutch system,you may find air in the system.

check your coil and see if you have fire.if you have fire then you need to check your fuel pressure. i have a mazda 2600i that did the same thing and it was the coil .did your truck back fire when you shout it off?. if it did iam pretty sure its your coil.note there is a module in side the dis very few people know about this but they are not notted for going bad good luck

Test fuel pressure when key on/ engine off, and when running and compare to specs. Could be bad fuel pump, relay, regulator, gas cap, injector failing.

find gas pump...take picture...remove gas pump, install new gas pump, hook up wires....make look like picture..........

Listen for hissing sound with engine running that will be your leak.

Best bet is get a factory service repair book, it will show you where each one goes

Timing marks are always on the harmonic balancer,that;s what the pullys blot to that drive your belts.Once you've found said marks by turning the crankshaft pullys by hand,using the belt to do so,scribe said proper timing mark with a white paint pen.Match that mark with the tab on the engine block at the harmonic balancer.Pacience my friend.

What?? Hitting the fuel tank won't do anything. Follow the gasoline filler pipe from the gas door down to the tank. Sounds like you have a collapsed filter sock on the pickup tube inside the tank

If this is a manual transmission then you have a clutch problem. If the throw-out fork is moving when you push the clutch, then the clutch fingers/disc could be damaged or the transmission pilot bearing is bad. If the fork isn't moving, then you are looking at a clutch master/slave cylinder issue or cable if it is cable operated.

Replace all neccessary bulbs

your starter is turning but not engageing re check your job if evrything ok replace sterter ok

Follow the lower hose on your radator to the engine block, remove the hose and it should be right there, look at the way it is put in so you do not put it back in upside down and cause real problems.

its the ecu that send power to coil need to conect it to a computer or diagnostic centre

If it does not use a distributor, the timing is not adjustable.If you have fuel for the injectors and spark at the plugs, you would need compression and it should start.Could be the spark plugs, or too much fuel, or too little, or other problems.Once you know you have fuel and spark, you may need to use a scanner to check the rest of the components.

check make sure there is fuel then check 4 spark

It is the same as the a Ford ranger. The location is Under the dash to the left of the steering column.

Necesito el manual de Mazda B2600 reparacion de motorGracias

You don't say if it's slipping or not. You have a hydraulic clutch which consists of a master cylinder and a slave cylinder. If it's slipping, you will probably need to replace the clutch assembly (clutch disc, pressure plate, throw out bearing and pilot bearing). Be sure the master cylinder (plastic reservoir very near brake booster) for fluid level. If low, fill to line. If empty, you might have air in the system. Not sure on your vehicle, but sometimes you can adjust the rod that pushes your clutch fork with the slave cylinder (this will be under the truck in front of your transmission) It is not recommended, but if you need to get it to a repair shop without a tow truck, it's worth a look.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting fixya.com.

Open the hood of the car and disconnect the battery with a socket wrench. Remove the four security screws from the top of the instrument cluster. Pop the trim off the instrument cluster to access the cluster itself.Remove the four screws from the instrument cluster. There is one screw in each corner. Use the Phillips screwdriver to remove them.Pull the cluster out of the vehicle and disconnect the two electrical cables at the rear of the cluster.Now replace the burnt out bulbs and reverse the procedure to fix the dash.
