I have a B2200 '88 all manual, no power anything (175,000). I bout it from a friend (ex friend) and was told its in great shape. Well 900 bucks in parts for a new exhaustand its still not right. I took it off the road because I got a good deal on a Frontier from the job, but I have a choice with the Mazda, sell it at a loss or turn it into a hobbie stress release project which is what I'm doin.</P>


The issues i have with it are:</P>


Idles rough: I can get it to idle at 800 but it boggs like it wants to stall (but doesn't) enough times to think theres a problem. Plus its not real smooth, jumping about10 -20RPMS when idling. When I am accelerating or at hway speeds the thing runs like a raped ape. Think it might be a vacuum issue. I dunno though.</P>


The choke does not work.</P>


Burns oil when its cold.</P>


I am in NY and was wondering if one of thoughs Wagner Carbs would be illegal even if it improves the B's emissions output.</P>


The bench seat is shot. Am thinking of finding buckets from another Mazda, but want to make sure they are high enough.</P>


</P>


Needs shocks all around. The front end seems OK, but it is very hard to turn wheel when moving slow or standing still.</P>


Blower speed **** only works on high</P>


Front window leaks</P>


Sun roof does not seal very tight.</P>


Thats it, all in all after looking at the list, it really does not need much, just to resell it, I would not be able to get my money back. It's costed me $2,100.00 so far and I am thinking that its going to cost anotherfiftenn hundredto make it nice, and I have no idea what they resell for.</P>
