Replacing Spark Plugs in 2000 Mazda Miata - How to do? by fluxcapacito

This can't be rocket science...I need to change the spark plugs in my Miata...can anyone tell me where they are located? My owner's manual says absolutely nothing.
 
Besides the spark plugs, I have brand new air, fuel and oil filters (and newly changed oil)...any ideas why my engine check light would still be on? I have to get an emissions test and I am running out of things to fix!!
 
Thanks.

I have a 99 Miata that shows a Check Engine and an EGR code when the gas tank becomes half empty....fill it up and the light goes off.
Any ideas?

clean the carbon build up out of the manifold with throttle cleaner. Worked for me.

scratches and such on bumper...how to fix? by pegleg1

Hi.
 
I'm selling my 1991 Miata and there are a few scratches on the bumper that are a bit deep into the paint.
 
Any suggestions on how to make them less noticeable to potential buyers? Should I try and sand them down and then touch up the paint?
 
Thanks!

Consider getting the car detailed. Many detailers can touch up the paint and make it look almost new.

Sloshing Sounds In Wheel Well?? by moosemats

My 93 special edition has what sounds like a bunch of water in some body cavity just over my left shoulder when I accelerate from a stop and/or brake. We recently had two weeks of torrential rains, so it is possible it accumulated then.It's NOT in the door. My question is; how to I drain this so I don't rust from the inside out? Thanks!

If you can't find the spark plugs you shouldn't be allowed to own wrenches!

Did you check your drain plug located behind the passenger and drivers side seat. Mine was somewhat plugged and I used a fish tank hose cleaner to gently clean it out.
