I have a 2001 mazda protege 2. Ol when I start it it idles rough and in order to keep it on I have to depress the gas pedal some and it wont go over 2000 rpm I have to keep pushing the pedal all the way to the floor then after 30 - 40 seconds then it finally goes up slowly until it hits 3000 rpm then it rev normally as long as I keep it over 3000 rpm if it goes under 3000 rpm it drops sharply down to 1500 rpm and runs rough and it wont idle by iteself at all ive already replaced the spark plugs, coil packs, egr, all fuel injectors, the fuel pressure regulator, and the intake manifold gasket and nothing has helped. Also I dont know if these are suppose to move or not but the two gold colored round shaped items on the passenger side of the air intake that have little arms comming out of them and they are connected to vacumm lines dont move at all no matter how high the rpms are I can push them in and they will spring back open if this helps. I really really need help on this asap I dont know how much longer I will have a job due to arriving late or not at all considering I dont have too many people to call on for a ride.
One other thing this all started after I replace the motor in it with one from a 2001 626 since they have the same block all of the exterior parts were changed over intake, sensors, exhaust, etc.
Thanks in advance
