Unless, of course, it's a pre-92 Miata, in which case a broken crank at under 100k is not unheard-of. They tried to make it a *little* bit lighter and a *little* bit smaller, and ended up making it

Okay, here's the situation: '70 MGB, intermittent starter failure. Twisting the key will always trip the relay, which will *not* always engage the solenoid. Three basic modes: 1 (95% of the time) Tur

Well, I currently drive the only RWD car in the family, a 1970 MGB. (well, only RWD daily driver, anyway) I live in Rochester, NY, where non-el-nino winters rack up better than 10 feet of snow per se

This strikes me as unreasonably long. Here in Rochester, NY, where the weekend brought lows in the teens or single digits and six inches of snow, my 'B will start on 2 or 3 seconds of cranking. (whe
