    Remove the bolts going through the coil bracket into the valve cover and lossen the lower bolt on the bracket on the back of the engine.
    Thats all part of the camcover gasket replacement.

    Yea. I remember my first Miata VC. Kinda a pain in the ass but it's not bad.

    Did you pull the sensor out of the front of the VC? Do it, cus I broke it the first time i did it.

    Replace the O ring on the CAS while youre at it. When it leaks oil (and its famous for doing so) it ruins your heater hoses, and those are a whore to change. Have fun.

    yup, all the sensors and hoses were off. I guess its just the coil pack bolted on in the back?
