Manual for my '03 by
Clark Friedrichs
I have been at several Miata sites this morning, and found on all sites,
"Enthusiasts Manual 1.8."
The problem is the manual covers up to the '97 model year and I have a '03.
Any suggestions?
Thank you.
Clark

wearing a hole in the timimg belt cover. He's asking decent money to

Timing belt failure, does it kill the motor on a Miata? by
Mal Osborne
Anyone had one fail to know for sure? Some motors just stop until you put a
new one on, where others have the pistons meet the valves, snapping then off
dropping the mushroom bits into the combustion chamber and destroying the
entire motor in a series of nasty load clunking noises.

Does anyone have ACTUAL FIRST-HAND experience with the 0.2-0.3oz/gal mix of
acetone with gasoline to boost octane and improve mpg in a Miata or Protege?
And no, I am not interested in this whole discussion of how it's not
approved, will eat up your seals, if it was true all gas would already...

98 Protege 1.5L 5 Speed Man Fluctuating Idle RPMs by

The 1.5L I just replaced ran fine but had loose rod bearing. There was no
RPM problem. The newly installed engine came with everything attached
(intake/exhaust manifolds, sensors, etc). Now at cold start-up the engine
revs to 1000 RPM and shortly later idles down to 750 RPM. Turn on the A/C

98 Mazda 1.5L ECU/PCM Reset by
rljt60
Having just installed a 1.5L into a Protege (5 speed manual) is it wise and
even possible to reset the ECU/PCM so it has to "relearn" the engine. If
so, how do you do it?
Many thanks, Bill

Replacement license plate light? by
Scott Streeter
Anyone know where I can buy a replacement. The little plastic clip on
the side broke so now the light just hangs out by the wire (have it
duct taped up now). Figured I'd ask here first since anything from the
dealer will be outrageously over priced. Thanks.

I am still slowly parting out 3 miatas and may do the same with this

where to find dual exhaust systems by
Tonyrama
Ok, so I took my baby in for an inspection sticker, and they're telling me
that they can't sticker it because my muffler is cracked, and that it can't
be fixed. While I doubt that it can't be fixed, it would seem like a good a
time as any to upgrade to a dual system. Who makes a nice system? I...
