DESCRIPTION:
Its All About Spirit said A Miata owner from Barbados says.. A well written, clear and concise book with plenty of pictures to help you do what you want to do to the car. It covers everything from all of the standard distance / time maintenance jobs that should be done, through to the more complicated in a language that makes it easy for the novice and the expert.I bought this book over a year ago and still use it every time I go to do something to the car! If you want to do jobs your self, and need a bit of help, get this book!. A great repair manual for '94-'97 Miatas mike_in_NM This book covers maintenance and major and minor repairs to 1.8L Miatas up to the 1998 redesign. In the US, this means model years 1994 thru 1997. If you have a 1990 - 1993 Miata, buy the 1.6L book by the same author. If you have a 1999 or later Miata, then neither book will be useful.This book is well written, with lots of photos and diagrams. I have found the instructions very useful and well thought-out. This book has allowed me to do repairs on my Miata that I would have never tried alone. For example, I was able to completely remove my dash from the car, including the steering wheel and airbags, so that I could replace the car. "Enthusiast's Shop Manual" according to A Customer. I just received the book today, so this review is only based on an hour or two of perusing - but so far I'm really impressed. It's much easier to find topics than in the Mazda manual, and has in several, if not all, cases - better photos of the task. It does not list the part or tool number, but includes the torque spec. etc The printing is relatively small, but that's just to include all the details they do - maybe overkill for someone just looking for the torque spec, but very helpful for someone who hasn't done the job several times before. Far more info. than a typical "Haynes" manual has.
This, combined with his personal interest in the Miata and his years of writing and editing Haynes manuals, makes him uniquely qualified to write the best Miata 1.8-liter shop manual available to date. The super-manual for Miata owners. The author has personally dismantled and reassembled a Miata, taking step-by-step pictures of all procedures. Coverage includes maintenance, repairs, modifications and improvements to all 1.8-liter Miatas from 1994-1997 (the second-generation Miata launched for 1999 is not covered).
