Mazda Rx8 Rotary (Renesis) Engine

October 27, 2008

Watch the following two interesting videos that show all the tehnical data about the Renesis 1.3 litre unique engine, and also help to understand how the Rx8 wankel rotary engine works. It shows the oil cooling system for both rotor chambers, the fuel circulation and the ignition system.

The second video shows how the compression test can be done on both versions, the 192 bhp manual 5 gears, and the high power version 231 bhp 6 gears. This test is very important in case you decide to buy a Second hand Rx-8 , because it’s the most accurate method to find the usage of the rotary engine.
