Temperature Control Kit

Model: Mazda Rx 8 MK 1 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Radiator

The tool that shows us the guide today is the most effective for reducing engine temperature. It is a product that modifies the ventilation of the control system, altering temperatures from 98.6 °F (factory setting) to 82.4 °F, so the operating temperature of the engine is particularly reduced. Installing this device takes only about twenty minutes. Although this tool primarily aims to lower engine temperature, it can provide other benefits such as a longer engine life, improved performance, greater air conditioning efficiency due to lower temperatures, reduced fan running time after the vehicle is turned off, and better throttle response at low revs.

Unscrew the tensioner and the lower pulley cover, allowing you to comfortably extract the new belt in position. Now simply retrace the steps described above to reassemble the various components.
