1994 miata headlights wink uncontrollably,just

98% of the time that's a corroded ground wire for the headlights and I've dealt with it several times. Look under your brake booster and you'll see a flat white rectangular plastic case with about 6 black wires running into it. It's fastened with a #8 bolt straight down into the car chassis. Because it's sitting on the flat shelf it gets wet and once the connectors get corroded, it creates exactly the problem you describe. It can be opened up and the wires cleaned. There's a good YouTube video that shows how to clean corroded and oxidized wiring in cars:

When my mazda miata is idling the oil pressure gauge stays on low it wont go up to normal until you start driving

That is somewhat normal for an oil pump to not build all that much pressure until the engine turns more rpm's.

I drove 7 km before I realize I have not lower the hand break of my MazdaMX5, there was burning smell in the right rear wheel but nothing else .is it a bad sign?

How do i remove a carbine alarm from my 1994 mazda miata mx 5

if this alarm was fitted after the car was made then these wires will make connection's to the vehicle's wiring 'you wont find a matching connection, just trace the path of these wires and i expect you will find that where they connect it will be where ONE wire has been cut and each end connected to the alarms wiring ie to cut the power to the injection/fuel pump to stop vehicle being started,one of these connectors will be for power supply and earth so check with voltmeter first then trace and dissconnect, a bit of patiance and all will be good keep me posted if you wish

Took the battery out of my 91 Miata for the winter. Now, with the battery back in, the left turn signal is on constantly, whether the engine is turned on or not. All other lights, horn, etc work fine.

VERY bad idea to disconnect a battery on that car for an extended period of time. It is highly possible that the main computer has failed.
