I have a person who wants to buy my 1.8 liter engine with 75K miles. It has been sitting for 2 years. All that he wants is the block and the head. That is cool with me because the intake, valve cover, oil pan, etc. get good money on their own. Any ideas on what a fair price would be for just...

I just bought a 1991 Miata SIGHT UNSEEN. ON EBAY. Well not totally sight unseen, but photos. I'm THRILLED. Hubby and I are going to pick it up this weekend... an 18 hour round trip drive! WOW. Hubby works at my dad's body shop and we are going to paint it HOT WHEELS PINK (the new vibrance...

My partner wants to put a trailer hitch on our MX-5 so our new toy (a tadpole trike) can be carried. I am certain that a hitch would lower the trade in value of the car. He says it would not. Anyone care to comment?

I'm sure this has come up in the past, but ???? I bought my '03 LS used. I do not know the code for the radio. I looked in Miata.net, but it just covers older radios. I have the factory manual for the car but it shows how to set the code if you are changing it (if you already know the old code ! I...

For the past few weeks, my 91 Miata stalls when the engine is cold. However, it only seems to happen when I hit my first stop sign of any trip. As I brake toward the intersection and engage the clutch, the engine winds down and stalls. To get started again I have to turn-over the engine for 10-30...

This link on miata.net says that all 1990-1997 miatas have four crash sensors. I think that this may be in error. http://www.miata.net/faq/miata_airbag_faq.html I found the sensors and the blue box on the 1990 model that I tore down, but can not find them on the '96 model. The control box looks...

Can anyone please help me...I have a peugeot 206 and have realised there is water in my oil...i have flushed the water out and there is also alot oil in the radiator...there is no evidence of water in the oil.....

My Miata ('99) didn't come with a remote; I think it wasn't even an option. Anyhow, I got tired of using the key to unlock the door, so I got an el cheapo keyless kit (2 remotes, 1 receiver, 2 actuators, a bunch of cables and screws) from eBay and asked one of my friends to install it. It's been...

This should be fun, we are expecting freezing rain tonight with 1 to 2 inches of ice, the worst winter weather prediction for this area in at least 5 years, maybe over 10 years. All they had to do was mention ice yesterday when it was raining and people started smashing their cars into each...

The smutsters have found us! Maybe if we ignore them like trolls, they'll go away :-) Chris -- 99BBB

Anybody know of a shop in the New Port Richey/Tampa area that can take care of my 2000 Miata?

Hi Guys, I have for sale my 1990 Cherry Red Miata. manufactured in 1989. Her black cloth interior and cherry red exterior are in wonderful condition. She was repainted about eight months ago to touch up the usual faded paint / oxidation. Her new tires, chrome wheels, struts & shocks, and poly...

Since last week or so I've noticed that the ABS light on my Miata (2000) would sometimes come on whenever I turn on the turning signals. Just now on my way to work a few things happened that I think are related (chronologically): 1) While cruising, ABS light came on (did not turn on turning...

The check engine light in my 06 MX-5 came on this weekend. Oddly, it SEEMS like it came on precisely when the odometer rolled over 2000 miles. Checked everything the manual says will cause the light to come on. Nothing obvious. Is it just conspiracy paranoia or is Mazda actually making their...

I've seen this mentioned before but being 'comfortable' with how Outlook Express works with newsgroups, I haven't really pursued an alternate. Should I? I know some will say yes but is that the general consensus? Others using OE? Are there cheap / free (and good) alternatives out...

as a followup to a query of several months ago about the miata on snow and ice, the northern owners who said it ran well in winter were right-on. it functions at least as well and maybe better than the big guys although once you're on pure ice, you're more like a ski. an important drawback, and...

I just had a brilliant idea (you won't argue with this one Pat)! Fit the same hot-rod engine from the Mazdaspeed 3 / 6 into the new NC! Why the heck not? The bar has been raised that high by none other than GM! Mazda must respond! The brilliant part is, the same old benefit of parts sharing....
