The symptoms indicate a faulty MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor is not working as it should. Have the stored error codes read at a Mazda dealership or Autozone store. If the code comes back P0105 (or very close) this indicates faulty MAP sensor performance.

SOURCE: 2001 mazda protege will not start

well, with all that you have changed the only two possible things that are left PCM and the ECM....

Do you have an alarm system on this vehicle? If you purchased this car second hand it may have something that is inhibiting the engine from firing. From what you have told us here that would be where I would start looking.

I really hope this is helpfull

Major problems with 04 rx8s. Flooding etc. Many motors replaced under warranty. Check your plugs, heard that could be a problem, and not sure about this, but also heard that the alternator and voltage regulator my have something to do with it.

You may have fuel problem, change fuel filter to see if that helps, if not fuel pump may be going out.

WELL ITS A NO RUN

No, not the coil. you just showed it is a gas problem with your starting fluid test. 32psi sounds too low, so before you suspect the injectors not pulsing, you need to check with Mazda for the specific pressure for your protege. There is a problem with the pump or the pressure regulator, but something is not right. Multi-port injection systems usually are 40--45psi and above.

2004 pt cruiser keeps blowing fuel pump fuse,replaced fuel pump, no change.runs rough at idle and stalls,blows fp fuse,also replaced ign.coil,plug wires and plugs also changed relays

There are two fuses for the fuel pump relay. One fuse is load side of relay, that fuse also sends voltage to load side of asd relay, the asd relay sends voltage to several systems, two of which are the fuel injectors and ignition coil. I'm not telling you to replace, anything, but, you need to do some testing.
The other fuse goes to control side of relay, smaller amp fuse. I don't know the amp rating of the fuse that keeps blowing.
See that fuse, it supplies voltage to load side of fuel pump relay and also to asd relay.

2000 mazda protege 1.6L my spark plugs are getting soaked with gas

bad fuel injectors. bad spark plugs - inspect and or replace -- bad spark plug wires - test ohms resistance of the spark plug wires with a multi meter (5 bucks at harbor freight) -- or simply replace the spark plug wires.
How was it you tested the coil and spark at the plugs?

I'd lean more towads faulty fuel injection, if you go to repai this, please be sure to add a quality fuel tank cleaner like lucas (the larger the bottle the less the cost per ounce - and works VERY well), You may also want to be sure to replace the fuel filter...

You've already eliminated the spark plug & wireset, distributor cap & rotor.
Sounds like your car needs a tune-up, specifically, the PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) valve, and/of the EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve.

Components checked/replaced during a tune-up are:
air filter
motor oil
motor oil filter
breather filter
fuel filter(s)
fuel strainer
PCV valve
EGR valve
spark plugs
spark plug wires
ECM or distributor cap & rotor
cabin air filter
transmission oil filter
transmission oil
engine coolant
check all vacuum hoses and lines

Troubleshooting the no-start condition - from the 1990 Mitsu Mighty Max Repair Manual:

Priority Action Part Type -- Cause
1 Inspect Battery -- Battery Discharged or Faulty.
2 Inspect Battery Cable -- Corroded, Broken, Shorted or Poorly Connected Battery Cable.
3 Inspect Distributor Cap -- Distributor Cap Cracked or Burned.

5 Inspect Ignition Coil -- Faulty Ignition Coil.
6 Inspect Wireset -- Worn, Damaged or Faulty Spark Plug Wire(s).
7 Inspect Spark Plug -- Incorrectly Gapped or Fouled Spark Plug(s).
8 Inspect Starter -- Starter Motor Faulty.
9 Inspect Fuel Pump -- Low Fuel Pressure.
10 Inspect Solenoid Switch -- Faulty Starter Solenoid Switch.
11 Inspect Fuel Pump Relay -- Faulty Fuel Pump Relay.
12 Inspect Fuel Injector Pressure Regulator -- Faulty Fuel Injector Pressure Regulator.
13 Inspect Ignition Switch -- Improperly Connected or Faulty Ignition Switch.
14 Inspect Starter Drive -- Faulty Starter Drive.
15 Inspect Fuel Injector -- Dirty or Worn Fuel Injectors.
16 Inspect Fuel Pump Strainer -- Clogged or Dirty Fuel Pump Strainerat.
17 Inspect Engine Control Computer -- Incorrect Operating Information Being Delivered and Sent From The EEC.

Your fuel consumption will be high and if you keep driving it, you will end up needing a new catalytic converter very soon. I would have the coil module tested.
