also have a 04 MPV with the same problem. Happened last year also. it's one of the ignition coils. Must be a design flaw from the factory as somehow moisture get into the coil and causes missfiring. Coil costs about $77 from Mazda (CAN).

i believe your over charging ie; voltage regulator bad. should only have between 12-14.5 volts max when testing at bat with volt meter

VSS or vehicle speed sensor aka cam sensor or crank position sensor. Test the battery and alternator. You should also check for blown fuses, bad wires and grounds on a car as old as yours. If you find it's getting spark and fuel after further testing, check the timing belt. It could have slipped or broke even if it was changed recently so either pull off the cover or at least do a compression test.

I'm guessing that you've tested the actual current output of the alternator then. I'm assuming that the output is between 13-14Volts at the battery when the car is running... If it's too low, then it's not charging your battery at all, too high, and it's frying your battery.... Another thing that can cause this is if you have a short in your electrical system.. that, however, will be difficult to narrow down...

Car died and wont start

Do you check the battery??? If the battery is fine, it seems you have a bad alternator.

1989 MAZDA MPV NO CRANK NO START STARTER TESTS GOOD.

Assuming you've checked the battery for a possible short and both the battery and the starter for loose connections, no click sounds like a faulty starter solonoid, which could work intermittently.

My 89 camry stalled on me and know it wont start.

No clicking mean no power to the solenoid to engage the contact for the starter. If starter is not turning, you will not have spark. It stalled when you drove since not power to turn on the Electronic Fuel injection so you don't have gas. Now you don't have electric to your starter, then I suggest that you have some one to check ECM before starting replacing Starter, Fuel Injection...

Rough idling,rough acceleration then runs decent when i back off

you may need to clean the injectors
what you can do is
you can buy some injector cleaner and see if this helps
make Shaw you get a decent brand as the cheep ones do not work as good
drive around with this in your gas tank
when you have in in your gas tank it helps clean them if you do some harsh acceleration but don't race the motor and don't speed
in other words get to the speed limit fast
this will apply pressure and will push through any gunk build up
there may be some smoke for a while from the exhaust but is will go back to normal when the fuel injector has finished cleaning and all the build up is gone
hopes this helps

My 89 mazda 323 turns over but wont start

Last week my 323 89' Mazda stop working as I was driving it in middle of the street, I pushed to the side. it would not start, the starter sounded ok, but the car just didnt start, I checked the fuses, gas pump, and all seemed to be ok, finally with the help of a friend we found out that the ignition rotor at the distributor wasnt working we then replace it with a new one from autozone , is about 5 dollars, now it works just fine, big problem easy solution.
