"I had a very annoying problem, the car would buck like crazy and no one could figure out why, the car would not stall however, but it would cut out at any RPM for no reason under light throttle or heavy, it turned out to be a bad Throttle Position Sensor, now my car runs PERFECT! So, if any one experiences these symptoms check the voltage of the TPS, it could be to blame. Every one I talked with (MAZDA, PETTIT RACING, TRI POINT, PETER FERRELL, MAZDATRIX) said they have never seen one go bad. So hopefully I can save someone the agrivation that I had to go through to solve this problem. If any one is looking for good advice check out KEVIN at PRO-STORE (201-773-2737)and/or CAMRON at PETTIT RACING (954-735-0100), both have been a tremendous help."
