This could be your next water pump impeller.
This came off a Mazda MPV. I sure hope Mazda
does not use this plastic impeller on the new RX8.
Injected molded plastic parts don't age well.
Heat and time take their toll and injected molded parts
become brittle and break.

Email Ford and Mazda and object :-)
