perfect video

Do like ETCG does and get some spare rubber hose to put on the pliers and then clamp the fuel line safely. Great video. Will definitely help a lot of Miata owners out there. The process is very similar for 626, MX6, and Probe owners except ours is in the engine bay making it a lot easier to work with.

Thanks for the easy to follow guidline and video coverage of how to do this.

i fucken love how expertvillage told you to let the fuel spray out wow thats so fucking dangerous what if ur engine is really hot!!!

[bdsoccerman10]

Hy man your videos r awesome I will do that stuff when I get my miata at the end of the summer. It will be my first car and I was wondering if you could give me a few tips about the car. I also can't do all those things at once to my car but if I was to pick 1 of those things to do to it what would it be?

[kfx700991]

@bdsoccerman10 dood nice i wish i had a miata :)

This tutorial was a HUGE help, thanks so much. Might be worth mentioning that I just pinched off the fuel hose and did not unplug the fuel pump or have to re-prime upon completion. Also worth noting to not use a cheap pen to block off the fuel line at first. Mine BROKE OFF inside of the line forcing me to replace the small section of hose. Anyways, thanks again and keep them coming...

Brilliant help video

But what sort of wire do you use to bridge the f/p to the g/t?

Thanks

These videos are great. A shock and or spring replacement would be greatly appreciate. Thanks for all your work

Amazing job mate, just bought a 92 miata and this helped me a lot.

Keep it coming and thank you very much

[savuisai]

what year is your miata? looks nit

[boygenis]

THis is all good but I got a problem. My MIata doesn't have engine and transmission. It has an electric motor and 11 deep cycle batteries...sooo i dont have any of these problems... THanks

Hey, I have a really low idle on mine, I haven't figured out what it could be, but I'm thinking vacuum leak, or a dirty throttle body. Can you do a video on this? That would be fantastic! I love your videos, I've done all the work on my car from watching them!

[link0587]

could you please do a tutorial of replacing brake fluid? thank you!

[Matt007b]

this is probably asking way too much but if you ever get to it - I need to change my brakes.. I've never done it before :) Anyway if you do it - i'd love to see you record it - thanks!

[Matt007b]

thanks for the video..mine is due..once winter is over I might give this a shot.

for stuck hoses, grab the hose with a piler and give it a twist, this should break any connection between the hose and the steel line. Agree forget about priming the pump just start it up.

[personalfunfest]

To much unnecessary shit here. First off, dont disconnect anything under the dash - simply take off the gas gap and go - the miata system doesnt make an anormous ammount of fuel pressure under any circumstance. Simply begin by taking off the fuel lines at the filter. The exit line is always crudded and stuck on becasue of gravity - its quicker to CUT IT at the harlines with a knife and have a replacement hose handy.

The last step of 'priming' the pump is also a waste of time, simply start it

Nice little instructional video. Wish I had watched it before I replaced my 96's fuel filter yesterday. If the car is your only means of transportation, anyone about to replace the fuel filter might want to also buy a foot or two of 5/16" fuel line and replacement clamps when they purchase the fuel filter. Also, a little bit of penatrating oil (WD40, PB Blaster, etc.) applied to the connections where the fuel pump meets the hoses might help get them off up easier.

[personalfunfest]

(cont) simply start it and go - the starter will 'try' for about 3-4 times -- not go crazy, just give it 3 'quick' blip-starts on the key and by #4 start it as normal.

My way is better becasue you elimatate all teh unecessary steps ebgning and end, AND you replace that 20 year old fuel line that takes WAY to long to get off in order to 'save it'
