that may be why....I don't buy automatics, but I hear there is a difference in intakes between the two. If you can get some good detailed pics of yours I'll compare it t mine and see what we came up with. I'd also like to see your stock air box assembly to see if anything was removed that wasn't hooked back up. I bet it's a simple vaccuum line.

The stock airbox is long gone, I have an SRI now.
Yea, it was a vac line that was not plugged off. It does not stall anymore but the idle seems low...or rough. And the other day after I filled it with gas it would not idle at all. I had to put one foot on the gas and keep the revs up and left foot brake to get going.

hmm, sounds like what I was thinking. I'm not familair with the variations between the the mtx and atx, but I'll look at a friends atx protege and see what he has there. I wonder if there was an IAC motor/valve that wasn't reconnected or has come loose.

or the vaccuum box that was up by the throttle body inlet.. maybe one of those came loose by accident.. or something... maybe he just really messed up the MAF without knowing it too.. that puppy is sensitive...

Taking it to Mazda on Friday, they will sort it out I am sure.
