ABS>>>So Confusing by Ringo
I have a 2000 MX5 Miata, and had gotten my Insurance Company to reduce our premium for our three vehicles by quite a bit, by driving so few miles on all three (Being reteired). Paid my premium in full to Liberty Mutual for both Home & Auto. Today in the mail get a couple of thank you letters,...

Timing Belt Idler Pulley question by [email protected]
The saga of replacing my water pump continues. Finally swapped out the water pump, and now am putting everything back together. For those of you who have not ever considered replacing your water pump - it is a rather time consuming endeavor on the Miata - remove the cam shaft cover, accessory...

Just wondering after the fact... by Ted King
I have a 2002 Miata. I did a dumb thing - I wasn't paying close attention and took a corner a little too close. The rear wheel rode up on the edge of the curb just enough to pinch the sidewall on the rim and ruin the tire (sidewall got a hole in it - fortunately the rim just got a little scuff...

Got any Miata peeves? Or hidden likes? by [email protected]
So, we all know the Miata has driving fun covered. In a big way! But what about things that are not so great? Or things you like that are less talked-about. Here are some of mine! Small peeves - Horn - Cup holder location (can live with it by now, though) - Sun visors unscrew themselves (oh,...

Dura-crap battery by pws[_1_]
As of today I am on my third Duralast battery for my Miata in less than a year. They keep leaking, not cool. I do have a brand-new one again, but my confidence level in it is zero. I guess it is about time to order another Westco. Pat

Miata's Effeminate? by Turtoni
I used to own a Miata and traded it in a year or so ago for a more practical new vehicle but it was an awesome fun car. I was wondering if anybody else had experienced other guys thinking that a Miata is an effeminate car? I guess the size makes it seem girlish to them, like a motor bike would?...

2005 MazdaSpeed wheels/tires by bowman
I've got a 2005 MX5 Turbo that came loaded up with fancy, still like, new Toyo tires and Racing Hart wheels. Total mileage 7000 miles as of 07/2010. I'm considering making this car my daily driver. In which case I'd opt for lesser wheels and a good set of Michelin all weather tires. Any idea how...

alt.autos.mazda by Body Roll
Would a news admin be interested to create alt.autos.mazda so that owners of Mazda 6s and 3s won't keep spamming rec.autos.makers.mazda.miata ? There is already quite a few groups under alt.autos.* and hardly any rec.autos.makers.* I don't have a direct access to any news servers anymore. Thanks...

94 1.8 rev limiter. by Mal Osborne
Read in a few places that the 94 1.8 is limited at 7000RPM. Mine seems to spin a bit further than this, looks like 7200 on the tacho. Anyone confirm what it really is?

Timing Belt Pics at 16 years and 128,000 miles by pws
I tore apart a 1.6 liter engine from a 1990 model with 128,000 miles and decided to just cut the timing belt off. The tensioners were going bad, the spring was rusty, and the water pump was badly gunked up, but this original 16 year old belt looks like it would have gone a lot longer. It is very...

bouncing ride by bokuglen
My '97 Miata with 80K miles has an annoying ride. Even on smooth roads, if I hit a normal street manhole cover, the car bounces around. I know it is supposed to have a firm ride, but this seems dangerous... going around a curve and hitting a small bump results in a little side skid. I checked the...
