Default Does the 1995 1.8l have a high pressure oil feed in the block?
I called BEGI and the lady told me that the 1995 1.8l miata engine has a high pressure oil line like the 1.6 next to the dipstick. Is this true?

This is a pic I took of the (possible) oil feed bung next to the exhuast manifold. Is this correct?

1990-95.5 had the feed. Sometime in 95 they switched to not having the feed.

Beleive me I did. Everyone says the 1.6 has the feed but the 1.8 doesn't. Well now I'm finding out that the 1.8 has the feed too but only the '95 motor?
