Re: Mazda MX3

yes thats about right. I never managed more than 215 miles from a
tank. Seems to make little difference if you drive economically or
like a racing driver so might as well go for the latter. You get
much more from a tank on super unleaded but you cost more and with
prices at present probably not worth it. Dont worry though they have
a small fuel tank. I reckon MPG is about 32 which isnt bad for a car
that doesn 0-60 in about 8secs and 140mph!

If it turns, but doesn't kick, that sounds like immobiliser. If its the battery, it wouldn't turn. Open the door with the key, and see if the alarm goes off....
