Tonight I had to replace a small coolant hose.There was also a hose that runs from the oil filler neck to no where.I had oil on the driveway and figured out it was coming from that hose.I looked at all the diagrams and it shows that hose going back into the base of the oil filler neck.The only bad part is there is no place for me to hook the hose back into the oil filler neck.I plugged the hose with a bolt to stop it from leaking but now the car smokes occasionally.From the looks of the hose and where it comes from it looks like some sort of oil return or over flow line.The motor thats in this car has 300 miles on it.Its a mazda reman.It shouldnt be smoking at all.The turbos have 75k on them.If they are shot who would you reccomend to rebuild them?



Next thing.The drivers side rear tire is toeing in a little bit.I was reading about some bushing thats are in the rear and wondered if these could cause this?



Last but not least.the damn heat dont work.Personally I dont care about the heat considering this is my summer car only but the G/F likes to have heat she is always cold .......I would assume the heater core is bad.

Ok i figured out the smoking problem.It was that oil line so I just inplugged it for now so it drips a little oil out but it stopped the car from smoking.
