Description
The oil filter on NA and NB Miatas is a little bit of a headache to get to, but the bigger issue is the mess - you can slip a generic Tupperware under the filter, but it never catches all of the oil. Unless you look forward to the rust-proofing that oil on everything provides, you need a better solution. Fortunately, we have one!
This custom drain funnel clips onto the stock oil cooler / warmer and catches all of that oil and routes it to your drain pan. We include a hose for the funnel, so you can thread it down, past the oil pan, and into your drain pan. The funnel is big enough to catch the oil without overflowing, and it's extended (away from the block) so that it will work with or without an aftermarket oil thermostat. No more mess!
Since this clips onto the oil cooler / warmer that's missing from 1990-1993 Miatas, this will only work with 1994-2005 Miatas.
Recently updated for a tighter fit on the oil cooler and a more extended mouth to do an even better job of catching drips if your filter is farther away from the block than normal. Plus, there's a hole to hang it up!

Great tool to use and makes the oil changes less messy. Routing the hose down to the bottom is a bit of a challenge and the space in front of the lower control arm is where I routed mine. I recommend doing this after the oil has been drained and plug replaced.
Worked great! No mess! Replaced heavier reinforced drain hose with lighter, more flexible vinyl surgical tubing held in place by a spring clip rather than a zip-tie.
Does exactly what it's intended for. Great little kit!
The first time I changed the oil filter I had newspaper and toilet paper anywhere the oil could drip. I cut a plastic jar to try to catch as much as possible. It was a real ordeal. This time I removed the front wheel, removed a vertical bracket that was in the way , and used the Flyin Miata funnel. SO MUCH EASIER.
Super helpful keeping oil from going everywhere, which I had this before my first oil changes.
