I am assuming that you are talking about the pelet in the front of the ecentric shaft. If that is the case you probally should not waste your time with them and just get a solid one that allows oil to flow to the rotors at all temps.

becareful replacing it, press the clutch with a bar and then use maybe an impact to release the main pully bolt, and replace the pellet

Yea, I visit atkins rotary very often to read up on whatever, Ill get the pass plug thermal pellet seems to do a lot of good for the engine for a cheap price $15, a local place carry's them for me, Ill be picking one up soon.
Thanks you BlackRX7, I didnt know about holding down the clutch, atkinsrotary site has instructions and I was simply gonna go by those, but any other info I can get will help

Atkins info fine, but before you start, read this warning BlackRx7 was referring to:
http://www.mazdatrix.com/faq/pulley.htm
It sure can't anything to do this while changing the pellet.

Yea, that didnt really have anything to do with changing the thermal pellet, down the line I will change the pulley and belts, but for now Im putting in NGK spark plugs and Pass Plug Thermal Pellet

If anyone has any sites on how to install spark plugs that would help too

Sorry, but you need to remove the eccentric bolt to remove the Thermal Pellet. That's what it's all about. Just ask the guys here a lot of questions before you start something if your not sure.

Hell, theyre way easier than the e-shaft bolt. You need a 13/16 plug socket and a little anti-seize for the threads. Lefty loosy, righty tighty
