I see two other components in front of the radiator, that resemble cooling devices. What are they?

cymfc3s 03-12-2003 01:27 PM

one is probably the aux electric fan.

Baldy 03-12-2003 01:29 PM

it actually looks just like a small radiator...I didn't know there was another fan, I'll have to check that out

cymfc3s 03-12-2003 01:34 PM

thats the oil cooler. In between the 2 is the a/c condensor.

A/C and Oil cooler? The power steering tubing makes a big 'S' in front of the radiator on an FD

cockblocked ya!!

cool...I'm debating on whether or not I should hook back up the a/c

my parts car supposedly has a good compressor, and I know all my a/c controls work...what else is involved in getting it working, assuming I replace the compressor (the current one is frozen)?





I know this robs the engine of power, but it will get over 100 degrees this summer, no doubt

I vaguely remember a Mazda mechanic quoting me like $2- or $300 bucks...money...cold air...money....cold air...

for me, I pulled the AC out for some weight savings and just keep the winows down in the summer and always have some bottled water in the car just in case.
