Got a 2006 Mazda 6 with around 130k, I posted about it a few months back. Since then I have replaced the fuel pump and filter, coil packs and spark plugs, MAF sensor and still having the same issue. When you start it cold it revs up and does about 3 times before it will stay running. After you get it to start and drive it, it wants to stall or not really take off from a stand still. It also stalls or doesn’t down shift or RPM up and take off if you need a little acceleration going up a hill or trying to pass someone or in a situation like that. I took it to a local mechanic and he said it was a faulty fuel pump that want pressuring up. Since I just replaced it I called the company I got it from and they sent me another, well, same issue. Anyone have any clue what this might be?

Check for recalls online….my daughter had a 09 tribute with a recall on something in the fuel system . -
Check the hose going from the air filter to the intake.. Look for cracks or in you can put your hand down in there, will make it run lean as all get out.. wrap it in black tape if so and keep on drivingComment
