Is Ford's new EcoBoost engine a Mazda in disguise? by Auto_Writer
Ford Motor Co. that it will offer a four-cylinder EcoBoost engine for some of its vehicles starting next year, an effort to provide greater fuel economy to consumers without compromising on horsepower. But is it a Ford engine or really a Mazda MZR with a Ford nameplate? http://bit.ly/Ifr8t

Anyone have any commends on custom air intakes for Miatas by [email protected]
I was checking out the following: http://www.gomiata.com/aemshorramin.html I am curious if people have actually experienced better mileage from a kit like this. If so, how much? I would think even an extra 1 MPG would be significant these days. I am thinking of adding it to my 1999 AE.

Rear window material by Baby Grand
I want to replace the soft rear window in my 97 M. I have a shop and tools to do it myself, but what is it? Clear Polycarbonate? Thickness is .040 inches (1 mm). Anyone have a reasonable price source for this material? TIA Baby Grand

missing by Baby Grand
I bought my 97 M model at 36K miles, and have driven it for 4 years. Now has 88K. On a recent highway trip it started missing when ever I accelerated, but would smooth out when I let back off the gas. This has been a gradual onset, but seems to be getting worse. If I start off very easy with...

missing PS by Baby Grand
Oh, one other clue. The check engine light came on during the above mentioned trip. When I got down on the gas, and the missing really kicked in, the check engine light would flash, but when I backed off and it smoothed out, it would stay on steady. Won't go out, however. Thanks.

Broken water pump pulley bolt by BAK
Just finished changing the water pump and timing belt in my "95 and broke a bolt in the water pump pulley. Everything was already reassembled, but I just HAD to reach in with a socket and check to see if I had tightened them. I know it cannot stay that way and plan on taking it apart and fixing...

Question on brake wear by BAK
I just changed all brake pads and had all rotors turned. Went for a test drive and the left front rotor is coloring (slight bluish tint) and showed signs of rubbing, where as the other three show nothing. Is this something to be concerned about, or should I let them wear in, then re-check?

New owner, old Miata by BAK
Hello group, After many years of looking, I finally broke down and bought a 1995 Miata. Needs loads of attention, but I wanted something to "tinker" with, so it was perfect. I will be picking your brains and possibly pestering ya'll in the near future for advice and help. Hope thats O.K.

Ride height varies by BAK
The ride height on my '95 varies slightly in the front left-right, in the rear its 3/8" higher on the right. This is with new KYB AGX shocks, FM springs, FM rear shock mounts, and all new bump stops. Is this acceptable? Is there a way to adjust this?

Heater hose.... by BAK
Was on my way to a job site today in my "new" '95. About two miles from my destination I noticed the AC suddenly go warm. Checked the gauges and noticed the temp climbing. Drove about a 1/2 mile on HOT. (There was NO place to stop for help......deserted area next to refinery) Quick look under the...

Water pump replacement by [email protected]
I am having a tough time replacing my leaking water pump. Per the directions, the timing belt has to be removed, which can be removed until the crank shaft pulley has been removed. After 2 days of trying - I can't get the crank shaft pulley off. Has anyone ever replaced the water pump without...
