I'm wondering why people like Tracy Crook and Bruce
Turrentine bother with TES "O" rings. I think they may have a better idea -
don't you!
You don't
seem to be wondering why they DON'T use them on the outer O-ring
:-)
Seriously,
you're absolutely right about this being appropriate for the list, and it's
human nature to want to improve things. Unfortunately, until it's proven
with some hours on a flying engine, you can only hope that it will be at least
as good as the stock ring, since they never fail.
One good
thing that came out of this thread for me is learning that Mazda went back
to putting the o-rings in the rotor housings. I hadn't realized
that. I did a check on the stock Mazda o-rings though, and note
that there is a different part number for 74-85, and 86-95 (and later in other
countries). I wouldn't be too quick to assume the size of the Renesis
seal, or the pre-86 seal will be the same as the one on the end housing that
Kelley is sending Creavey.
Enjoy your
TES quest.

intake has been canceled, back to the single rotor
