Mazda and Ford share engine blocks (i.e. the 3.0L in my Mazda6 is a Duratec block), however the electronics and most of the moving components are developed by the respective companies.

OBD2 codes should be the same for late 90's models. Mazda switched over to CAN last year.

The Mazda 2.5 litre V6 is completely different than the Duratec 2.5 litre V6. The base Millenia V6 dates back to the 1993 Ford Probe/Mazda 626(MX-6).

Of course, as long as you're talking Millenias... just get the S with the awesome 2.3 litre Miller Cycle engine.
