  4. Yes the car will start and run without the drivers side crank sensor in (when I was trying to get a Zed started we were swapping sensors from another Zed and found this out) I don't recommend it though as it won't be able to monitor VVT! The reason it won't start with the passenger side crank sensor out is because it uses this one along with the crank position sensor for timing so if that one is out the coil packs won't fire (or at least not in time) Faulty crank position sensors can give some random errors and cause rough idle and running as can a damaged flywheels (the keyway on the back is used by the crank sensor for timing) as this is part of the baseline timing for the engine. This is all from personal experience that tracked back to a faulty crank sensor - this can be found on the front edge of the gearbox near the clutch slave cylinder (assuming a VQ35DE engine)
  5. If it's the initial "pop" of the boot when you press the button that is the problem - as in you press the button the boot pops but you have to press and hold the button again while lifting the boot to open it? You can try the penny trick - I'm sure there is a thread but basically you take the spring out of the little black holder (the expensive bit you refer to) put a penny (or is it a 2p? I can't remember) or a suitable washer in and put it back together - the spring is more compressed so pushes up harder - you can add more washers as required BUT - do not go to mad with them I have seen bent boots from going mad and putting 4 coins or washers in !!!!!!!

  8. Hi everyone As my last guide seems so popular I thought I would do another this one is how to build an MX5 from the ground up First we need all the parts After a few hours putting the "parts" together we then refer to the blue prints After some basic work we are getting a shape Into the bodyshop for filler After a night in the dryer Sanding Then into paint Just needs the a polish before the photo shoot and presentation Had to lower it and add some aftermarket wheels to match the "prototype" Then we found a setting for the photo shoot I hope a certain forum member liked it All the Best from Mr and Mrs Keyser
