MX5 NC Fuel Gauge by
[email protected]
Hi everyone,
I bought the subject car almost two years ago and love it. The other
day, I went on a short trip of about 200 miles. Normally, the car is
driven around town. Along the way, I started to pay attention to the
fuel gauge and realized it is very non-linear. It is not really a
problem...

indicator lite rather than for gauge, (which we all know the miata has).

Side Mirrors Too Tight to Adjust by
Pat[_6_]
'91 Miata:
Maybe it one too many cold winters and hot summers.
It seems the side mirrors are resisting my efforts to adjust them,

could potentially break...

hillpc
This is my first Mazda; what a sweet little car. As I do with every
car I buy, new or used, I bought the service manual and wiring
diagram. Compared to the GM or Ford service manuals, though, there's
virtually nothing in there about how the systems work. For instance I
was hoping to learn about...

EGR Solenoid Valve by
Geary Morton
After much investigating, testing hoses, wiring, etc., I have concluded
that the P0106 (barometric) error code on my '99 must be due to a
defective EGR boost solenoid valve that sits atop the passenger side
