hi all,
as many(probably very many)of you know,i have a rattly v6,and we all suspect hydraulic tappet sticking or camshaft wear.i have been struggling to locate a mazda 929 manual(same engine)so i can start work on it.i have,however found a mazda mpv manual and the engine in that is a v6.it contains all the procedures for removing the timing belt,camshafts,hydraulic lifters etc.now,i know this is not exactly the same engine,but will it serve me as far as the above procedures are concerned?it has all the torque settings etc,so hopefully it will at least give me and my mechanic friend a little extra help.i have uploaded the manual to my own website,as that was the only way i could think of to show it to you guys.please feel free to download it from this link:

and if there are any v6 owners out there who want to have a look,it may provide some help to them,too.
thanks for reading this
