Some OK prices... by

The price on the Westco battery seems pretty good if you need one, I
shopped around when I bought mine and think I had to pay a couple of
bucks more....

Weird AC problem. by
XS11E[_1_]
Yesterday the 1992 Miata got a bath, charged up the battery (I
haven't driven it in awhile, it bothers my knee too much. Time to
sell?) and off I go, top up, AC on, AC seemed to cool for a few
blocks and then started blowing hot air. Got where I was going and
parked for a few hours, going home...

Car starts running badly... by
XS11E[_1_]
.... starting a day ago. I was also getting the dreaded driveshaft
squeak so I called Mike's Place <http://www.mikes-place.biz/> and made
an appointment for this AM.
They replaced the drive shaft for $100, they'd replaced it four years
earlier with a used one and it was long out of warranty...

Indy 500? by
XS11E[_1_]
For the 91st time the Indianapolis 500 is being run w/o one single
Miata being entered! Obviously the promoters of the race are being
very unfair, next year I think I'll put a cold air intake and racing
tires on my 1992 and enter.
Meanwhile, I'm rooting for Danica Patrick, she's a local girl...

WARNING, ON TOPIC POST! by
XS11E[_1_]
I overfilled my 1.6, the oil level was down to the add mark and without
thinking I dumped in a quart. Checking it cold shows I should have
added only about 1/2 quart.
Is this going to hurt anything? I wouldn't worry about it in most cars
but the sump is fairly small.....
I've driven it a...

Snow? by
XS11E[_1_]
I drove to Anne's for dinner last night around 6:30PM and found the
Miata with funny looking white stuff on it, I'll bet the poor little
thing never expected that here in Phoenix!
I can't recall the last time I saw it snow here and not melt as it
landed.
Fortunately, Mazda saw fit to intall a...

Top down! by
XS11E[_1_]

Trip and hmmmmm...... by

Went from Phoenix to San Marcos, California last weekend for my

Weird Weather:
Two years ago I did the same trip, had the top down, wore fairly heavy
jacket and was a bit chilly at times. Passing through Indio it was
warm but I...

Voting and drinking! by

My Miata is now old enough to do both!
Well, maybe. I really don't know the month it was born and do I count
date of manufacture or date of original sale?
