I’ve decided to add “unusual” maintenance items to my blog. Hopefully, this will give people inspiration to try things that most people would bypass in the name of convenience or because they haven’t tried the procedure before. This link refers to the original conversation about it on the forums: http://www.dfwmiata.com/showthread.php?15020-Gonna-replace-a-dead-radiator-fan&highlight= We did this over a year ago, and I’ll be honest at this point and tell you that my ...
FCM's instructions: http://fatcatmotorsports.com/FCM_MT_...ns_2_14_10.pdf This kit is for NA Miatas with Bilstein or Koni shocks and 2.5" springs installed.

My stock radiator started turning brown. Not real brown, but the fact that it started at all indicated to me that I should start looking.
