As
everyone knows, your oil filter is a vital part of
the lubrication system. Having a known quality filter
is a must, especially on our high performance high
rpm rotaries. Mazda original equipment filters are
acknowledged as the best overall solution. These
filters have the best fit, best construction and
the most filter area. Our filters are from Nippon,
the makers for Mazda. We’ve
packaged them in a convenient 4-pack, enough for
one year on the average. Best of all, the package
saves you about $10 over Mazda.

Never
heard of Idemitsu oil? Don’t be too surprised.
After 90 years, Idemitsu has just made itself available
to the American public. Here are a few things you
probably didn’t know:
• Largest
Japanese oil manufacturer in the world.
• Exclusive
supplier to all Japanese OEMs.
• Largest
producer of custom blended oils.
• Supplier
of custom competition blended oils for Mazda’s
racing efforts.
What
does this mean to us Rotarians? Now we can use the
oils that is based on technology that helped Mazda
win the 24 hours of LeMans. Nothing speaks better
for oil’s effectiveness than the ability to
survive that extreme punishment. We’ve tested
this oil in both of our race cars. Our world famous
RX7.COM “Stars and Stripes” championship
winning car puts severe stresses on the engine bearings.
We’ve never had any problems whatsoever with
Idemitsu oils. Being turbocharged and nitrous-fed,
there is no harder test for an oil. In addition,
Ken Scheepers has relied on Idemitsu oils to keep
his RX7.COM sponsored All-Motor engine together.
Now that you know the name, buy a few bottles, your
engine will thank you.

Every
once in awhile, there’s
products we have to experience to believe. FilterMAG
is definitely
one which qualifies. Everyone knows that particles
and debris build up in the oil from everyday running
of the engine. The oil filter’s job is to keep
this debris from circulating through the engine and
shortening the life of the vital internal parts.
Most of us have seen magnetic drain plugs in action
for transmissions and differentials. Worn particles
are attracted to the magnetic drain. What you will
see is a silvery goo stuck to the plug. Imagine if
those particles stayed suspended in the oil? FilterMAG
is designed specifically for the engine. FilterMAG
snaps to the oil filter and attracts magnetic particles
to stay in the filter. At the next oil change, remove
the filter, pull off the FilterMAG and throw the
filter away. We’ve
cut open filters to see what was held inside and
were quite surprised. There’s
more metal suspended in the oil than you would expect.
Remember: FilterMAG is a lifetime product and is
to be removed and reused continuously. The magnets
are an extremely high strength rare earth type (far
stronger than regular bar magnets). Also, the orientation
of the magnets and the stainless outer shield make
the outside of it non-magnetic. Also, they come designed
for a specific diameter oil filter. Of course, the
one we carry is only for the Mazda sized filter.
Pick one up today and you and your engine won't be
dissatisfied.
