That's what I told Mazda when I called to schedule possible service. They're convinced it's hydrolocked because of the intake. I should know more tomorrow after I take it in.Quote:

Clean your MAF and check your spark plugs. Go for a drive.
Took it in to Mazda this morning. They had it all apart and hooked up to all the diagnostic equipment and found nothing wrong with the car. They told me to keep an eye on it and bring it back if I experience any further problems. It did drive really well from westowne Mazda up to Dufferin and Steeles where I work. Either way, thanks to everyone who posted last night with advice. I really appreciate the help!
This too...but I'm 99% sure what I said is what the problem was. It has happened to me a couple times, it's nothing to do with the filter getting wet...just the right combination of humid air/moisture, drive time and parts heating/cooling at different rates causing condensation to form inside the intake and sucked in through the MAF sensor. I even have datalogs of it happening and you can see the MAF volts go from like 2-3v right up to nearly 5v between two readings.Quote:

Not far down the road from that is Fanny's though...lol I grew up in North Bay, 17 years there. Make sure you hit up burger world hungover on a sunday morning after going to the zoo/cecils on saturday night. Also the boat is good monday night (as long as it's open) and there's always moose's on wednesday for wings.Quote:
