Re: Peter Kite - Funeral
Just a re-post as the email functionality was broken and this wouldn't have been sent out. All, a bit of a shock but those who knew Peter (DRGN1) may not know that he passed away in the weekend: "Peter Kite. On 5 February 2011 (suddenly) at his home. Dearly loved Soulmate and best friend of Linda. W...

Server Move - Site Outage Yesterday
All, the MX5 Forum web server was moved to a new location at short notice yesterday, and there was a few hours of site downtime.
Apologies for that - it all seems to be back up correctly now.
Thanks

Hmmm, unfortunately the CAS doesn't seem to be the problem. It took me about an hour to get a second hand one installed.... it is a real pain to seat properly. Lots of Vaseline needed and patience. Was about to remove the rocker cover when finally it fitted. The engine seems to have the same problem...

Just found a really neat looking 3 window top on ebay (search under daveshouze) plastic windows, but will give similar 3/4 rear view as my hardtop. The thing I dislike about the stock top is the limited 3/4 vision and that'll likely be worse still with glass as the opening is smaller I think If it ...

No spark... possibly CAS broken
Was driving happily yesterday morning, but in the afternoon the car would not start and had to have it trucked home. Compression, oil pressure, and cranking all fine - a screwdriver to block test shows no spark. Suggestion given to me is likely cam angle sensor - this is a 1.8L 94 and apparently the...

I would go with ignition switch problems - have a search on this site for "ignition switch" - as it heats up the contacts likely move. There have been a number of people over the years with ignition switches causing electrical problems. You could pull it apart and clean it (contact cleaner) which is...

For all you iPhans (which I am sadly not one), Mazda Germany released a free Mazda-MX5 driving game for the iPhone last month. Called "You Cruise by Mazda MX-5" , it is apparently based on the Rally Master Pro game, which driving physics have been reworked to offer a higher top speed and modified ba...
