d on B-Series Truck and Tribute and should be perfo
rmed only at the mileage intervals specified in the ow
ner's manual.

Engine cooling system flushing
• Mazda recommends coolant replacement starting at
100,000 miles of service on all models since 2008 (e
xcept B-Truck and Tribute). Prior to 2008, some vehi

• Flushing the coolant system is only recommended if t
he customer accidentally adjusted the coolant level u
sing an incompatible type of coolant.
• Flushing machines that recondition? the existing cool

Cleaning of injectors
• Cleaning injectors without an actual power related co
mplaint from the customer, does not improve engine
performance.
