alot of time people slice the wire and put a switch in so they dont have to pull any thing or get out of the car also the rtek ecu allows you to just push your foot down all the way on the gas to deflood

how would you splice into that? or should i say which wire would you splice into? i will do that tomorrow, if i know what wire! the foot pedal to the floor doesn't work all that great, but if i lightly tap the gas while turning it over then it works sometimes! i really want to know what's with the smoke though! it is like a smoke bomb when it starts! i am actually starting to call it that! lol!

I always used to pull the fuse under the hood. Actually, I pulled two of them, INJ and ECU or something like that. Then floor it and crank it for 10 or 20 seconds.



I don't know if I'd be hacking up my wiring to put in a switch that's really a band-aid. If your injectors are dirty enough to drip fuel when its not running, how good is the flow when they're supposed to be working? The best thing, of course, is to pull the injectors and get them cleaned and flow tested. This fixed mine 100%, and I was having to pull those fuses almost every time I got gas before I got them cleaned.



If you've got a lot of smoke, I'm guessing you've got other issues as well. Does the engine use oil? Coolant? How many miles on it? Does it run well otherwise?

i am going to do both of those things that you guys say! my motor has about 116,500 miles on it! it does burn oil and use coolant! i will use about a quart of oil every week and about a half gallon of coolant every week! this should be normal, because from what i understand that one of the things that makes this car run, is that it injects oil in with the fuel as it runs! if that is the case then i can see how it would use oil! as for the coolant issue, hell i don't know, because i have checked everything that has to do with external coolant leak, and nothing! i know that i am not leaking coolant in the oil, or at least not alot, because my oil is not milky! at any rate, tell me what you think guys! thank you!

i was thinking the same! it smokes alot on start up! i mean ALOT! a CLOUD! lol! that is why i temporarly gave it the name "smoke bomb"! lol! the coolant issue, i was reading another thing on mazdatrix talking about how i might of either blown a coolant seal or cracked the housing, because the car does get hott at idle! it does fine when driving down the road, but after sitting for a little while it gets hot! when i rev up to about 2500 rpms for a second it goes back down to normal running temperature or when i take off it will! sometimes without even reving up it will go back to normal running temp on its own! hell idk!
