Hi gang I remember reading about batteries here last year...and didn't write anything down. But it seems like I need a new one for my wife's car. What is the consensus of this group as to what type and where to get it? Appreciate any help. Thanks! Tom

Does anybody know of a website that goes through the specifics of the instrument cluster removal on a 1999 Mazda 626 ? I've gotta get in there because 2 of the dashboard illumination bulbs burned out and the very left side of the windshield heater is clogged.

50 years ago, my brother used his Pontiac GTO to test pads in NJ for a vendor. His recomendation to do one or two hard stops from top speed to outgas the volitiles has stood me in good stead. After that, the brakes work much better. It's been 5 years since new pads....Martin

My 94 Mazda MX6 needs a new distributor. As this was dying, the car overheated and the shop replaced the thermostat. I now owe $353 for the thermostat, and $90 for diagnosing the distributor. The estimate for the distributor is an additional $840. So it will cost me $1,280 to get this car back,...

Is there an engine I can replace in my Miata 1995 in the 200-250 hp range?

I have just installed a new stereo in my 94 Miata to replace the factory unit that finally gave out. I have the center eyeball vents still out and was wondering if there is anyway to correct the looseness and droopiness of the vents. I have tried pushing them back in the socket to make them stay...

Can someone tell me if the radio from my 1996 "M" edition will fit in a 1991 miata without modification? Thanks! Pat

Put the MILLENNIUM + on your vehicle or your spouse vehicle and you can find out where that vehicle is EXACTLY!!! It is Advanced Internet Based GPS Vehicle Tracking. You can also find out how fast the vehicle has been going, and even call your cell phone when it exceeds a specific speed limit. It...

Hi all, Is it possible to replace just the mirror part, i.e. the reflective part, of a wing mirror, continuing to use the frame of the mirror that's screwed to the door? If so, how does one go about talking out the original one and replacing it? Thanks Eric

This link was posted to a local miata board. The person who built this has a lot of talent and time on their hands. http://www.rccaraction.com/online_ex/homebuilt.asp Pat

I'm about to replace the spark plugs and ignition wires on the Miata, here's what's near me: Checker Auto, Auto Zone. Farther away is Pep Boys, NAPA, BAP and Mazda dealer. Does anyone know which of the above might carry the NGK blue wires? I could call but I'd spend forever on "hold" IF I could...

Have you ever doubted your Miata's drivetrain integrity? If so, you should'nt, cause the 5x Racing 1991 Spec Miata just won a 5 lap race at the SCCA Roebling Road double drivers school with 54 other miatas this past weekend. The car has over 212,000 miles on it, including the original engine and...

I've realy missed my sport cars since I sold my last one, a Fiat 124 Spyder back in '75. Prior to that, I drove a series of '60s Corvettes. Eventually, marriage, raising a family, etc. left me driving a series of dull mini-vans and station wagons for many years. Now I'm retired and have bought a...

Hi all, While checking the wiring diagram today I note that it shows two different fuse panels. I can only find one, the one at the o/side inner wing adjacent to the servo. Anybody know where to find the other one? TIA Al.
