Hello guys, and welcome back to Car Obsession! Recently I've been having some cooling issues with Monique, mk1 Mk1 turbocharged Mazda MX-5 and her engine bay seems to have turned in to a furnace! Not only was she getting hot on track, but I found she was starting to get hot in traffic as well.

Given the fact I had no history of when or if the thermostat had ever been replaced, and that's it a cheap part to replaced, I thought it was a good place to start. As well as that in this video I'm also fitting a Davefab Radiator Cowl and a Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket. Apart from trying to get the old thermostat gasket it off, as you will see, the tasks undertaken were pretty straightforward.
