With open-topped styling and performance evocative of the classic
sportscars of the 1960s, the Mazda MX-5/Eunos had to be a huge
international success - and that's exactly what it's become. Now a
familiar sight on the streets and boulevards of the world, the MX-5
is owned by real enthusiasts, the kind of people who will want to
have hands-on involvement with the maintenance and repair of their
prized possession. For those enthusiasts, here is what we believe
to be the best, easiest to use workshop manual in the world. Author
Rod Grainger set out to create a new kind of owner's workshop
manual - friendly, easy to understand, easy to use, and yet more
detailed than any other manual currently available: two years
later, the Mazda MX-5 Miata 1.6 Enthusiast's Workshop Manual was
the result. Rod, and fellow enthusiasts Pete and Judith, stripped
down an MX-5 in an ordinary domestic garage using ordinary tools
and, in the process, took over 1,500 step-by-step photographs. The
result of all this work is a superbly detailed text which passes on
to the reader every detail of important jobs, including how
problems can be overcome without resorting to special tools. This
manual even tells the reader the size of nuts and bolts so they can
start work with the right tools and all clearances and torque
values are given in the text as the reader needs them. At paragraph
level, a unique symbol system provides cross-references or tells
the reader that there are helpful associated photos, drawings and
tables. The dreaded words "reassembly is a reversal of the
dismantling procedure" are banned, and every task, from changing a
bulb to rebuilding the gearbox, is described in full. Besides
detailed coverage of maintenance and repairs, this manual includes
advice on rustproofing, cosmetic tuning and mechanical tuning.
Rod's manual was prepared with the assistance of Mazda, and it
applies to all 1.6 litre models built between 1989 and 1995. Most
of the manual is relevant to later 1.6 litre models, too.
