Best Answer

Most common problems on Miatas are a bad coil pack, Cam Position Sensor, or the Crank Angle Sensor.

If you've recently changed the timing belt, it is a common mistake to place the timing wheel on backwards, which will also prevent it from firing.

How would you install spark wires on a 2003 miata?

You should never need to replace the wires leading to the spark plugs. The 2003 Miata has a coil pack at each spark plug (inside the spark plug hole). The wires leading to the coils are low voltage and should never break down.

That would depend on the year and how you drive your Miata. In my 1990, I drive it hard, and get about 26 miles per gallon city and about 37 on the highway driving at a constant speed.


What would cause 1991 Mazda miata to mis?

There could be a number of things causing this, two that I am familiar with are either the timing may be off or you could need new spark plugs and wires. I have a '94 Miata and mine started to miss not long after having my water pump and timing replaced, so I took it in figuring it was the timing belt, but it turned out to be the latter. It's not an overly expensive fix if that turns out to be the case, so there's no harm in looking in to it.
