Purpose, Function
The spark plug generates spark, ignition of the air-fuel mixture occurs, and combustion of the air-fuel mixture is triggered.
Construction
The spark plug is installed to the cylinder head.

Iridium on the center electrode and platinum on the ground electrode are used (iridium spark plug).
Because iridium has excellent durability, extreme thinning on the center electrode is achieved.
The area contacting flame is decreased by extremely thinning the center and setting electrodes, and extinction action is reduced. Therefore, excellent ignition performance is achieved.

Seat Belt Precautions
Seat belts help to decrease the possibility of severe injury during accidents
and sudden stops. Mazda recommends that the driver and all passengers always wear
seat belts.
All of the seat belt retractors are designed to keep the lap/shoulder belts out
of the way when not in use.

Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor
Purpose/Function
Detects the crankshaft speed as basic information for mainly determining
the fuel injection timing and ignition timing.
Detects the crankshaft speed and inputs it to the PCM as a CKP signal.
Construction
Installed on the side of the cylinder block (ri ...
