Some tachs can take the signal from one of the spark plug wires; you just thread the wire into the bood with the plug, or into the other end of the spark plug wire.

First make sure your battery cables a secured tightly, then look under your dash on driver side for a little black or red button if not there then by your fuse block for a little hide away toggle, you can also unhook ground for 5 min then re-hook and hit the brake rapidly for 5 sec resets your ECU

2001 mazda protege dx 5 spd dies, brakes are seized up?

It seems that one of the pulleys is bent, or you are using the wrong timing belt. I would suggest changing them. That would probably explain why the timing belt keeps breaking. The braking problem can be related, or you simply have a leak somewhere in the system and should try bleeding the brakes after thorough inspection.

Mazda Protege 2001.. when i start the engine. it makes a single popping burst. and when i speed up, the noise continues and fades down after a while.. can anyone suggest the problem please..

sounds like a misfire. first check it intake hose from the air filter box to the throttle body. check it for cracks. remove it if you have to. air entering the intake behind the MAF sensor causes improper air/fuel mixture which could cause your misfire.

if all is well it could be in need of a tune up plugs/wires (don't use aftermarket wires get mazda ones) coils could also be weak.
start from plugs to wires to coils, after checking the intake hose.

Putting the back seat down in a 97 Mazda Protege

The release on an LX or ES model is at the top of the seat backs, near the door opening, for the rear seats. The rear bench is a 60/40 split on these models. The rear seat does not lay down on the DX models.
