I think that I found out why this Miata was overheating.
Can you imagine what the inside of the head and block look like. Coolant anyone?

I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace.
Did you ever change or use coolant? Looks like pure water to me... I hope you cleaned the coolingchannels thoroughly...

I'm not really into changing fluids on a car....
Just kidding. This is not my car, at least, not to drive. This is the
1991 Silverstone that I am parting out.That coolant may be the original stuff that Mazda put in 18 years ago. Anyone need a 1.6 liter engine cheap? :-)

Can you send it overseas for, say, $100? ;)
Jeroen
Maybe for a hundred Euros. I am about to start burning US one dollar bills for heat before long at the rate things are going. :-/
Pat
OUCH! I don't think there's ANY coolant in that sucker unless rust acts as a coolant!

Heh, Rust-O-Freeze!
I did drain most of the fluids from the car a long time ago.
It will be interesting to see what the rest of it looks like since I am selling the external parts from it and then will see if anyone wants the block to rebuild.
