Short Suggestion:
Keep an extra el-cheap-o (or an extra old one that still works if you have
it) spark plug wire in your trunk.  I turned on my 92 with 36,700 miles this
morning and it was sputter city.  Poor thing could barely idle, so we limped
and wimpered our way to the nearest car part mart and bought a single two
buck wire that I rigged into place long enough to speed my way over to
IMPARTS for a full set of the real thing. Ahhhhhhh.....
Even though I could have sworn it to be a vacum leak or clogged fuel jet. But
thanks to you.  I knew the sputter was the dreaded 35,000 mile wire problem
(I thought I was imune!)   
My Miata and wallet (and not my mechanic) thank you.
