Can someone play "Taps" over it please? I blame Mazda, the first two versions of the Miata were more than cars, they were almost like family pets, not always well behaved but lovable! The third generation is a MUCH better car but.. a car amd nothing more than a car. <SIGH> -- XS11E, Killing...

Mazda MX-5 Miata It's sexy and affordable. It corners on a dime, and with an impressive reliability record, it's built to last. While it's not as powerful as some affordable sports cars, numerous automotive experts say the Mazda MX-5 Miata's nimble handling is great no matter what model year...

Had the top down tonight coming home around 10PM. I wore a jacket, it wasn't cold enough to really need it but it was more comfortable with it than without. First time I've worn a jacket since ???? Just checked the temperature, it was below 80F, too cold to support human life! Damn, I'm...

Just put the original AM/FM Cassette unit back into my Miata after my cheap aftermarket unit died. It's about the only thing that looks like it was made for the car and works. I usually listen only to ESPN on the AM radio so I won't miss the FM or the CD player but I will miss the larger cubby...

I've just ordered replacement shift boots, the little rubber on that goes on the transmission, the larger one that goes on the floor and the one that is visible inside. They're all bad, the inner ones are torn and as for the outer one, the leather has become stiff and inflexible and has...

You may never need to remove your engine from your Miata (or any other car) but here's a method that's quick and works very well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gFlgRUbO7M -- XS11E, Killing all posts from Google Groups The Usenet Improvement Project: http://twovoyagers.com/improve-usenet.org/

I'm amazed! I mail ordered a new battery for the 1992 Mazda Miata knowing it would be almost impossible for me to install with arthritis making both hands pretty non-functional but... no problem! Fortunately, it's a small battery and not very heavy. All went smoothly and I even had my letter...

Circumstances require I sell my house and move to an assisted living facility and in the process unload everything except my minivan so... the 1992 Miata is gone to a wholesaler for way too little. <sigh> I'll miss the help I received here, thanks to all who contributed. And where else could I...

Yesterday I found the rear window had separated from the top again, this is the second time. Robbins replaced the top in September so it's been 10 months, that's good, the first top only made it a couple of days. It's this...

Here's a Miata featuring the very rare BF Goodwrench tires! http://phoenix.craigslist.org/car/735913581.html

I've got a mirror with a damaged base, works fine, looks bad. I checked Ebay for a replacement and see there seem to be more power mirrors available than manual and I can also get the switch but..... how much wiring is needed to add power mirrors? I can't find any reference to them in the...

Sort of an odd thing... the Miata idles at about 1250rpm while waiting for a light but if I put it in neutral the idle drops to a proper 750rpm or so. Doesn't matter if the clutch is in or out, it idles at 750 until I put it in gear, then it immediately goes to 1250. Dragging clutch? Maybe? ...

Don't know if anyone's interested? http://phoenix.craigslist.org/car/246863842.html Disclaimer, I know nothing about the car or the poster. You're on your own if interested but I think it's very pretty if that helps?

Looks like I broke the antenna on my 1992 Miata, motor runs, antenna doesn't go up or down. I went to my local dealer's website and it appears that Mazda no longer sells the replacement mast, only the entire power antenna assembly, is that...

I was talking to my neighbor yesterday, he said, "I've sure gotten old! I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement, new knees. Fought prostate cancer and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine, take 40 different medications that make me dizzy, winded, and...

It's easy to spend bunches of money on code readers and other diagnostic tools but you can get the job done for much less: http://www.creativedice.com/productinfo.html

We've had some storms and my 1992 Miata is really dirty, would one of you please come wash it for me? TIA!

Today, Mr. Postman brought me the recommended book "Mazda Miata Enthusiast's shop manual by Rod Grainger and Pete Shoemark". I've looked at it very briefly and it seems like exactly what I need, thanks a bunch to gixer who recommended it, it's gonna be a life saver even though I'm probably not...
