Default What's up? From Houston

Hey guys; the name is Josh, I'm 19, and I currently live in Houston Texas. A little about myself I'm from NH, also lived in VA for two years. I love shooting photography and I'm also an artist. I work at Kroger in the produce department not your dream job but it's a job. I don't own a Miata but I plan on buying a one here in the near future. I have owned a 240sx in the past but had to sell it to pay for the down payment on my sergury, with the left over money from selling my car I picked up a brand new scooter for $1,000 it was great when it ran but now it sits in my garage because the engine won't turn over I've tried everything that I know to try for trouble shooting so if you know anything about 150cc Carb'd motors let me know.

Anyways I look forward to learning about Miatas, and meating some new people.

Also I'd like to start pricing out parts for a NA model but I'm not aware of a good site for aftermarket parts. I know for my 240 I used enjukuracing but I'd like to know a good site for Miata's thanks!


My old 89' KA 240sx, not a beauty but I liked her

welcome to mfz, a couple of places that come to mind are goodwin racing, moss miata, and flying miata. though there are many more depending on what you wish to accomplish.

Welcome to the forum. Also look at 949racing and Trackspeed Engineering.

Does the scooter get spark and fuel?

Thanks for the other sites

and I checked the fuel pump and it was doing it's thing, and the spark plug I pulled it out and layed it onto a metal surface and turned it over and it sparked on the surface, I think it may have something to do with a small oil leak from a hose that I repaired, it cracked and was shooting oil all over the front of the motor, so maybe it got oil into a place it wasn't supposed to
