Oil Cooler Fan Kit

One of the most common causes of RX-8 engine failure is excessive heat.  High temperatures have long been the enemy of rotary engine longevity and performance. There are many effective modifications that can increase the cooling capacity of your RX-8s primary cooling system – the engine coolant, water pump and radiator.  Until now there have been few ways to address the secondary cooling system – the engine oil and coolers.  The oil system of the Rotary provides approximately 30% of the engine cooling. During normal operation engine oil is routed through the eccentric shaft into the rotors to provide cooling and lubrication. When engine oil temperatures are reduced, more heat is removed from the engine reducing demand on the primary cooling system.   Since the RX-8 does not come equipped with an oil temperature gauge most owners are not aware there is a problem until it’s too late and they are facing  engine failure or low compression.       With another hot summer upon us oi
