I recently purchased a '90 Miata with 91,000 original miles and the
clutch engages about 1 inch off of the floorboard.  A new clutch,
pressure plate and throw out bearing were installed about two years ago
as well as a new clutch slave cylinder.  I stopped by the local Mazda

I am planning to purchase a 1995 Mazda 626 (asking price 2600USD) and
was wondering how reliable would it be. Given that it has about 109K
miles on it (low for its age), any opinions on this model/year are
welcome. I am looking particularly at reliability atleast till

Folks,
I have a '92 Miata with about 120,000 miles on it.  For the last couple
of months I have had trouble starting it when the engine is warm.  I
rarely do this but when it happens I am sweating it as it cranks and

Is it possible to run Miata's on regular fuel with no negative
consequences?
I'm in the market for a used Miata, but am concerned about having to
pay premium gas prices.

Hey, did we get a real oil pressure gauge back now in the NC?
It's always really bothered me that Mazda took the low road  on the oil
pressure gauge issue.
Hope they have properly rectified that issue.

Hello, everyone.
The subject says it all. Most people around me say I need to change
the oil every 3,000 miles (or every 3 months). I drive only short
distance, so it takes me about 6 months to reach 3,000 miles. Do I

What's the "normal" reading for oil pressure at idle, and ~ 4K RPM?
Thanks!

Got a new black 2005 MazdaSpeed. Can't stand any more mud covered
sides. Living in a new housing zone, lots of mud from construction
trucks. Can't find any. Dealers of no help so far. Some say use 2004
for front, but none available for back because of some extra rear

I have a '91 Miata and use MOBIL ONE 10W30 for all seasons.
For the cold winters in the Northeast, what weight MOBIL ONE oil should I
use?

I have a question about my car. There is oil getting into the coolant. Once
the oil gets to thick in the radiator the car starts to over heat and I
have to drain it out and ad new coolant. I have been told that it is my
engine head and others have told me that the engine block has a ...

I have the original non-ABS brakes on my 1991 miata that need to be
replaced. At the same time, I have the entire braking system from my
1996 model miata with ABS that is in excellent condition.
Does anyone know if I can use the calipers, brackets, and rotors from

My otherwise perfect '99 has begun making a high-pitched whine/shreik
intermittently.  It starts when the car is in neutral, and I can stop it by
revving in gear up to about 4,000 RPM and then throwing out the clutch.  I
can hear the whine decrease in volume and pitch and then go ...

After eight years the brake pedal action on my '99 was feeling soft so
today I had stainless steel brake lines(Goodridge) installed.  I
expected a much firmer feel to the pedal but on the drive home there
