How are you? Thanks Keeloh is the Fault codes applicable for TURBO 1990? coz it says 1990-1992 [2.2L Non-Turbo] and the first set of codes are for 1988-1989 ALL (Probe 1989 only) it just happened a couple of days ago then i started to feel the lost of torque and power is poor... seems i need to change the clutch kit. I'll do this steps first then i'll post updates thanks again.

If you go down on the page youll see were it says:

The following codes are for the 1992 MX6 and 626 Turbo (GT):
1990-1992 Those codes are for the turbo model. Might be you're EGR

I would guess either EGR or o2...seem to be the only codes I've ever had pop up on a 1gen

Thanks guys but new problem came up the water pipe going to the intake manifold cracked and water is squirting out need to know the part no. of that silly hose its seems to be hard to replace i tried changing them yesterday but i did had a hard time working on it. i think i need to removed TB and upper part of the intake manifold. i checked on Mazda dealership and they couldn't find the right hose for it. where do you think i could get a replacement part for this hose? do you think a regular water or heater hose will do? the hose is located on the middle of the intake manifold and goes to the throttle body the size outside diameter is about half an inch.

Don't need to take out the upper part of the intake manifold. Of all the intake manifold water hoses for 88-89 Mx6, they only have one avaiable and its the one you need, the other 2 hoses Mazda dont have them anymore. If you search youll find the answer here meng part number are all over here

We could meet up. I never go to a mx6 meet cause theres none here in Los Angeles. With the ppl i hang around sometimes dont have time cause they work or they dont want to. So i started hanging around with Welcome we have meets 2 or 3 times a week. Kool ppl

When ever you want to get rid of the car hit me up 1st man.

Thanks men i already ordered the parts from the dealership we did checked on the part no. you gave me and your right it is for 88-89 models mine got a different part no for the 1990 model. now need to figure out the easiest way to put em since you told me no need to take out the upper intake manifold. is there a need to take out the throttle body? its really tight reaching for that hose specially for the hose clips. if you could suggest an easy removal and installation for this parts i surely appreciate it.
