The FC is the long single skinny cooler N326-14-700A ...yes?
Same oil cooler for all FC's.
Would like to see an RX-8 one cracked open Paul.

Here is the FC Part Numbers
8871-14-810 Thermo Pellet
1757-14-821 Spring
I can tell you that from the parts model codes (front 4 numbers) the pellet
8871 is from Series I RX-7, and the 1757 spring is from the original 1974 13B RX-4.

Great to use as a cooler drain spot, but I am pretty sure the RX-8's don't have this removable bolt, the parts pic above does not show one and I don't recall seeing one on mine, you could always undo the oil cooler hose OD to drain mate.??
Correction, gee I am an old stupid BASTARD at times, yes there plainly is a bolt head there??? Derrr DUMB aren't I, a senior moment.
So yes, OD perhaps this is a drain point...MMMmm will have to investigate...
Sorry Dudes..

WOW...
$87.03 US for the 8871 Pellet and $2.81 for the 1757 Spring, is it GOLD Plated or something.

This is the access point to the thermostat as Mr Engman reminded me last night. That's how we modify them on the FD and FE (SE3P). The design is a bit different as the bolt head will not separate from the thermostat.
