- Mazda stalling at idle or running rough?
This is the 2.3L Mazda engine and ford engines, although the procedure will be similar on most vehicles. Shows removing and cleaning throttle body. It also discuses cleaning the MAF and air filter. 2007 Mazda 5 Sport
Thank you so much for making this video! Very detailed and I followed every step. Worked like a charm! No more rough idles at the red light and no fear of it dying out! Thank you!!
Thanks for showing the actual cleaning, because the Mazda bulletin says to not spray directly in the throttle body and stay away from the throttle shaft brgs.
Great point!
Worked for Mazda 3***:
What worked for me was that I've changed the Air filter, spark plugs, Maf sensor clean and Throttle body clean up, BUT the most important thing that solved the problem was that I've filled the half of tank with REGULAR fuel with Instead of SPECIAL on a different fuel supplier than the one that I regularly use.
It seems to be that the injectors and the fuel pump get dirty after using the 90 octanes (recommended by Mazda). Try to use Regular fuel some times to avoid this problem with the RPMs. Also, try to fuel your Mazda 3 at different fuel suppliers place.
This procedure worked for me since the first time I filled the half of the tank with Regular Fuel.
I saved $180 :-) ....
I'm really lucky I saw this video on the day before I go to mechanic I already called him and he asked for $200 to fix my car , I used the computer to check it , then I saw this video, I paid just $20 , $14,99 for th filter and 4,99 for the cleaner , thanks a lot
Used this video as a guide to clean my 2012 Mazda 5 throttle body. Thank you!
No relearning needed?
Thank you for the helpful video. Cleaning the throttle body did the trick for me. 2012 Mazda5 with 2.5L.
Glad it helped
anyone watching ------ Don't push the valve with your hand. It will off set your timing with the engine.
What 'valve'??
LOL... WHAT THE.... that is impossible to do!
Just some carburettor cleaner and a cloth of rags you have the much of the same result in less time..... with japanese cars you can even use it to clean your injectors just squert some in while it idles. Just a little a time it will get sucked in through the injectors. It often used as start booster it can't do any harm. Open the valve also it is that place you really need to clean where the edge of the valve where it's seales with the walls around it. It's is a real easy Diy job
Nooo...carb cleaners have too much chemicals. It will remove the coating on throttle body. Use throttle body cleaner.
I believe after sliding the red clip back, you were supposed to press in on it for the catch/nub in the plug to clear the jack. Same for the coil on plug connectors.
Txs for taking the time and sharing this vid.
The reason this happens majority of the time is because the person disconnected the battery and the car starts up and the computer thinks the car is brand new and doesnt account for dirt in the throttle body. You can do a simple relearn procedure to fix this issue, let it run idle for 20 mins ac off, then let it run 20 mins with ac on full blast, then take it out for a spin and the caar should be fine.
Gonna try this
Interesting that how the ac helps it along
Did it work
Should you also clean out the hose that connects to both air flow and throttle body parts?
gracias por este video
Is this an electronic throttle body ? I cleaned mine recently and was at a loss as to how to open butterfly.. couldn't find cable anywhere. I just learned that apparently you aren't supposed to move the butterfly manually if electronic..can strip gears and damage it...I did by hand and didn't break it but it apparently is a risk
You can open an electronic throttle body butterfly by turning the car on - WITHOUT starting it - and depress the accelerator pedal all the way down. Use some sort of stick or rod to keep the pedal to the floor. The throttle body butterfly will close back as soon as the pedal is released.
@@ve2za ove Read this but it thrn means reconnecting the battery wouldn't that create a fault code ? Just curious
Great video ,thanks for posting. Did everything on video except disconnecting battery (don't have radio code).
Overall really good results slightly better idleing but starting much more efficiently. i don't know if i've created another problem , but the car is starting to rev up to 2000 rpm when dipping the clutch at low speed and then returniing to an idle of 1000 rpm.
Any ideas what the problem may be.
Good health and safe motoring (greetings from Glasgow)
Mine is doing the exact same thing, that's why i was looking here for an idea of how to fix it, I assume if you've already done all this then it won't fix my problem
@@Slash250688 try disconnecting the negative side of your battery and turn the headlight switch on (to drain the remaining power on the system), keep it like that for about 5 min, after that re connect the battery and turn your car on, leave it alone for 7 to 10 minutes so it can adjust idle, after the 7 to 10 min turn on the ac and leave it alone for another 7 to 10 min, after that take it for a drive, that's how they told me i can make my mazda 3 re learn its idle throttle positions.
If you're on about on start up it's normal.its like a choke
Would have been nice to hear it and see rpms before and after at the end of the video.
I thought that too good video but let down of an end I truly believe its my issue
thank you
can i get a copy of this Technical Service TSB? Mazda says they only have the replacement not cleaning of this car. thanks
After the cleaning, did you need to relearn the tps? Thank you so much
So I followed your video up to the part where your not supposed to spray the throttle body directly, I did :(. Now my Mazda rough idles more than ever. What do I do
What were the results? Video cut short after being so long? ???
Process helped some but was still missing and stalling, further examination found the timing chain is stretched and will need replaced. Also has possible VVT issues. will be doing a video on that process later. Did this process first as it is a service bulletin, know common issue, and much easier to complete. I've also had success with this technique on other vehicles.
About the only video that shows the dissambling and assembling of different parts. 👍👍👍
What CEL were on before you cleaned the throttlebody and did it clear after? Thanks!
Do you really need special chemicals for cleaning these parts? I'll never use up even one can of cleaner. What about an alternative I may have around already?
Yes, you'll need to use the specific ones I note. Also on the MAF you want to be really gentle.
Wish my tb was where yours is mine is at front if engine ggrr
you also needed to spray the throttle sensor, I always do on my vehicle and it helps it
Nice tip, Thanks!!Be sure to subscribe. Really appreciate it!!!
Did you check engine light come off after doing this
I have a intake in my 5 2007 code p2177 keeps coming up help
Hello, I have a mazda 5ts2 2.0 petrol engine 113, 000 mileage. I have a problem about the very bad gas mileage. The car show any check engine light.
I would start with spark plugs and ignition coil boots, it is possible that your engine is misfireing, also if it has a bad idle I would replace the IAC valve
Got a P2187 code after doing this. Any fixes?
So i have to replace whole throttle body do I need to drain coolant to be able to take the two pipes off for coolant?
No.9ffenve but did you listen to it at all ?. He says no coolant pipes to disconnected and just clean it not replace
@Kevin Hancock did you read at all. The question was if you had to replace the throttle body. Not that this guy was doing that.
My Mazda 5 at a complete stop with the brakes on it tries to well it accelerates by itself any idea if this is has to do with the throttle body to?
Did you replaced or disconnected the battery before the symptoms?
@@yanyo999 battery was disconnected but it does the same thing once in a while a come and goes
did you find out what the problem was?
Does anybody know where the damn idle air control valve is on this damn engine?
@@jessekainordwall yup that's exactly what I've found out as well.
@@Beeni801 Did you find it?
@@geraldconde1 it doesn't have one.
@@Beeni801 Thx, must be a mistake on my diagram. I'd replace the entire throttle body if I wasn't getting rid of it.
@@geraldconde1 yeah I dumped that van and got a much needed upgrade for my wife.
it is better to disassemble the parts, do not be lazy
