My Miata bogs down in first by
Bob1123
Can anyone help? My Miata bogs down when I release the clutch into first,
it struggles for a bit, then gives me the acceleration I'm used to. Every
other gear transition is fine. NOTE: this situations only happens when I'm
driving my car "gently", i.e a standard traffic start/stop. Thanks.

CarMD or similar device any good? by
[email protected]
Anyone have experience or knowledge with one of these
devices?
It cost abt $90 and connect to the data port of your
car and helps diagnose any problems.
My 2000 Mazda Protege check engine light keeps coming
on and the dealer wants $120 JUST to hook the analyzer
up to it!!

Right now where I'm at is, I've gotten to the point where I can do

I am hoping that some of you might have some suggestions about a good
diagnostic scanner/code reader for my 2002 LS 6 speed. Not that it
matters, but it has everything on her but a rear spoiler and the 6

Check engine light - fuel cap replacement FYI by

The check engine light came on for the second time in my 7-month old

See http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/12/fashion/12cars.html?_r=1&oref=slogin
for the whole story, but the gist of it is that some cars are seen as
"gay" and the Miata is one of them. Other gay cars are the Volkswagen

Roll Bars? by

Is a roll bar really needed ? Which make is actually protective, and
won't interfere with my 1996 soft top with glass window? Aren't most of
the roll bars available just decorative & don't really protect the
driver in the event of a roll over? Aren't roll overs extremely rare in
such a low riding...
