Okie-dokie. I had fun (too much fun) in the mud Saturday. While I pride myself in the fact that hundreds of rednecks were cheering on the "little white Pathfinder" not getting stuck in the knee deep mud, I feel the hang-over of the mess and clean up that was sure to ensue. Here's the delimea .. She was running hot due the caked up mud in the rad. I managed to limp her home a couple of miles at a time when the CEL started flashing. I finally threw in the towel and called a buddy of mine that got her home via car trailer. After I pressure washed all of the mud out from under the hood today, I can not get it to crank. I have checked the MAF, Distributor, and various wires and hoses. I am going to pull the passenger side plugs tomorrow (after the water dries) and check them for fouling. Can any of you suggest anything else to check while I'm pouting about the fact that that was the last time I go mudding?

It is very common on the first gen 1.6L Mazda Miata. I'm not sure about the Pathy's though?

If anyone flames you for actually using the search feature I will personally rip their arm off and beat them to death with it. Thank you for using it!

Make sure that it's not just the sway bar end link. I had a similar issue and thought that it was my strut. One simple turn with a socket wrench shut the bastid' up.

Hard to tell from the one picture but, it looks like it fits pretty well on your SFD. Ahh .. I see that you edited while I was posting! Looks nice!

Manly color paint scheme for your rocker panels? You know, like Mazda Miata black?

Yeah, my Pathy felt "lighter" on the sharper turns and seemed to coast longer. Nice looking ride. I totally dig the roof rack!

I do but, couldn't tell you the capacity. It was added when I had my tranny rebuilt six or so years ago.

Jebus! Can there be a co-ToTM? Great first photo man!

Great question. I too want to start using my R50 for towing a buddies 76' Landcruiser on a car trailer.

That was my situation. I just pulled the trigger to order everything at once.

Of course I was kidding! Get an education. Work hard. Play hard.

Freck college! Lift the Pathy and have fun now!!

You got it!

Not only is it safe, it's incredibly easy to do. If any thing else it will prevent the extra wear and tear on your cv boots.

Just bustin' your balls. I had to re-read it when I first picked up my Pathy. I only use that little gem when I'm trucking up long hills or pulling the boat to the lake.

This info can also be found ten inches from your forehead on the driver side sun visor!

The OME lift is not is high as the AC. The higher the "lift" the more the tire camber is thrown off which is why camber bolts are recommended by Automotive Customizers.

I'm happy with my AC lift. Got more than the 2" lift advertised due to my "saggy ass" and worn stock suspension. Shoot, I made it to the rock garden (top of the mountain) on the Daniel trail at Uwharrie Saturday!

THAT IS AWESOME! Glad to hear the great news.

Going to vary owner to owner.

Nice! You should repost this pic in the "sexy flexy" section.

Got it back home from a damaging (yet fun) day at Uwharrie.

2 each side (4 degrees) negative camber.

Quick question .. did you flip (reverse) the front roof rack rail?
