By the way...is there anyone in the Cinci area who'd be willing to help me test some voltage on this thing? Aside from replacing the plugs and wires, that seems to be the next step (outside of replacing the ECU).
As for keeping the faith, so to speak, my love of Miatae is at a pretty low point at the moment. I was VERY tempted to just post up saying "first one to show up at my place with $5000 in hand can have this stupid thing". Hopefully this thing will be solved soon--I like having a Miata, but it'd be nice to have one that didn't need so much (non-routine) maintenance! -Bryan --- On Mon, 6/9/08, Adam Wolf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Adam Wolf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: Update on 2002 Bucking without CEL - The Buck is Back...

Chances of nicking that wire are pretty darn good. I'd take some time to trace that wire at least back to the firewall and assure myself of there being no nicks in the insulation. Or did you already do this? Keep the faith, Bryan!!! You'll figure it out. Adam On 6/9/08, Bryan Wyatt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Just saw it this morning. Don't seem to be any wires near it, but I'm wondering if the wiring from the aftermarket stereo components are messing with the ECU. Also called about the warranty and the only electric part it covers is the alternator. It was everything I could do to not yell at the guy on the phone and tell him it was completely useless for any actual problems... Since I'm effectively now no worse off, I guess I can look at it myself since I'll be out my own expense anyway (ie no warranty coverage). -Bryan --- On Sun, 6/8/08, Larry Alster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Larry Alster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: Update on 2002 Bucking without CEL - The Buck is Back...
