i cant take a pic but i have this on google. anyway the water pump is complety off. i just cant get the housing off it stuck on one the 12 mm studs.
i tried heating it up and hitting it with pb blaster and everything. and the coolant seems to be puddling on the trans mission like on top
i hope i make more sense

well unless i missed it as i was pulling everyhting off i didnt see any shims
but i am buying everything off mazdatrix. im just worried that i blew a seal.
and i used a fan from a lincoln mark vIII .. well the car didnt over heat but started bogging and running rich. so that makes me even more paranoid.
this is my first rotary

just a update
i got everything back together finally. ah it was easy thanks to the manual .
i haven't driven it but i did get it started she doesnt over heat or anything which is good so far.
i added a dye and check no leaks and there is no florescent colors in my exhust pipe.
next stop is to do the champagne test to check my coolant seals
thanks guys you've been a great help
