Trombone brush. Yes, really

This is the one I picked up from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000EELFOM

Note the reviews, almost all about miatas

Most likely your drains are clogged in either the fenders or the rain well behind your head.

With the top up, follow the carpet behind your head until you find a finger size hole at either side of the car under the carpet. Those holes become clogged with crap and don't allow the water to drain, causing a sloshing sound in the cabin. If there is water pooling there and you can't clear the drain hole with your finger, get yourself a trombone cleaner and clean the drain all the way to the ground. Don't use anything that can damage the drain like a screwdriver.

If the drain area under the carpet behind your head is dry, then it's most likely water trapped in the fenders due to clogged drains. You'll need to pull the wheel well liners back and root around in there to clear the crap out. This video shows how it's done.

Instrument Maintenance 101

This video starts out discussing some common issues that are caused by not keeping a trumpet clean and lubricated, and then shows how to clean your horn.

If you want cleaning brushes like the ones Monette uses, it's these:

Valve casing brush - The picture is wrong - it shows a mouthpiece brush. But this is the one used in the video, and it is your best friend for cleaning your valve casings. You can use it on lots of the other tubes on your horn as well, even though it looks too big. The bristles are soft enough that it fits into smaller tubes and does a great job.

Mouthpiece brush - Useful for things other than mouthpieces. Works great on piston ports, and you should brush out the mouthpiece receiver on your horn with it as often as possible because that's where lots of gunk tends to accumulate and cause problems with mouthpiece sealing and mouthpiece shank wear.

Snake - It says it's for trombone, but trust me - this is the one you want for trumpet as well.

A trombone brush works great for cleaning the drains behind the seat belt towers. Just be careful pushing it all the way through and yanking it back out: there are little rubber flaps at the bottom that can rip off if you jam them too hard.

As far as the water in there now, soak up as much as you can, dry with a hair dryer (being careful not to burn or melt the carpet), and if it's still a little damp an RV Dehumidifier can remove the rest of the moisture in the cabin.

+1 to drain holes. When it rains, water will naturally run into the seam between the top and the body of the car. Most of it overflows, but Mazda designed a rain rail in that area to drain it through the interior of the car. This is what you're looking for. You need a trombone cleaner for this process. Push the trombone cleaner into that hole, and aim towards the shifter. Then snake it downwards until it exits through a hole in the bottom of the car. Pull it out. Note that the hole is actually vertical and faces towards the inside of the car, so you'll have to go by blind feel. It'll occasionally bend back upwards or get caught on something, so it'll take a few tries until you figure it out. And never go upwards from the hole in the bottom, only go downwards from the hole in the top. There's a 1-way flap.




This is a very common occurence and practically a rite of passage for a new Miata owner. Read the reviews on this trombone cleaner to see what I'm talking about.
