Re: 1995 24v - car idle hunting between 1000-1500 revs
I’m using a spring cap for both, it doesn’t matter as there is now where for the pressure relief to go anyway. I had a similar problem and just needed to adjust idle air control screw. Should be instructions on the Oracle

Re: Air bag code 51
I have previously used a breakout fuse wired in place of rear wiper fuse, wire into cheap circuit timer and then a t5 bulb holder, airbag light comes on at ignition and after a few seconds goes out.

Re: Coolant lose
No bubbles. But going crazy not being able to find it so going to test it for peace of mind. After reading up I’m thinking possibly heater matrix, have had trouble before with it becoming air locked and wondering if maybe it’s leaking, the car never overheats or goes to low on coolant, so perhaps le...

I’ve ordered a head gasket testing kit, but don’t have any other signs such as bubbling or oil, no smoke from exhaust. I’m hoping to get advice for something to check,...

Radiator cap
I’m ordering a replacement radiator cap, the second coolant cap nearer engine is very perished on the black seal under cap but can’t seem to find a replacement. Are these parts available?

Suspension Bolts
Where do I find replacement suspension bolts?! Ford and Mazda don't stock the strut-to-knuckle pinch bolt or the rear lateral arm bolt. Both have stripped/snapped and looking like I might have to use a fully threaded bolt from local fastener
