Mazda Miata Valve Lash Adjustment How-To

Mazda Miata Valve Lash Adjustment How-To

Ever wondered how to get your 01-05 running in tip top shape? This is quite possibly the most critical step that gets constantly overlooked. If you have a 90-97 Miata, you don’t need to do this, but the 99-05 owners, this is something to keep in mind! Not to mention it’s not that difficult.

Big thank you to Greg Peters from The Car Passion Channel for some of the resources used in this video, he also has an awesome how-to that may answer some questions that I don’t. I’ll link the video and his website here:

You can also get them from Bofi Racing, and they carry custom sizes in case you can’t find what you need from an OEM distributor.
