ok i bought a 1986 turbo 2 it smoked blue and white so from what i readi thought the apex seals were gone. so i bought a used motor and it appers to be different mine is a 13b the one i got is 13bt?? the wireing is differnet will the block work?? new to rotorys . the car is a one owner and is like new very nice car .any help will be appreciated

 

You have a non turbo motor in the car unless it was swapped previously, i assume it says 13b injection on the dynamic chamber right?

BTW that would be your oil seals causing the smoke

 

What is your VIN?
US-spec 1986 FC turbos are somewhat rare...

ok did a little more research it is a 1986 turbo II . my fault i bought a 1987 - 1988 engine that is also a turbo it looks basicly the same the wireing harness is different but the block looks the same will it work or hell ill sell the whole mess its a mint car

 

We have no idea whether or not it will work since you have not provided any information other then the fact that "it's different". How about posting some pictures, a description of the differences, etc.?

 

Some suggestions:

Post your VIN#
Post pictures of the engine in your car and the engine you bought

That will help greatly.

 

Since you like to claim it's legit, why not tell us what the VIN is?

im at work and the cars home ill post some pics tonight.

 

Don't forget to post the VIN #.

 

vin JM1FC3328H0141216

 

vin JM1FC3328H0141216 i cant get the pics to load but some of the issues are the original wiring harness dosent unplug ill have to unplug each wire from every plug in order to remove the motor the oil sending unit is in a differnt location . the motor i got the main wiring harness unplugs at the side of the motor so the harness stays with the motor

 

That's a turbo VIN alright...

 

Turbo VIN, yes.
1986 model? No.

The "H" code in the VIN means it's a 1987 vehicle.
If your title / reg / paperwork states it's a 1986 model, it's a mistake.


-Ted

 

i thought where the h is stands for where the car was made??

 

NO.

We really need pics to really see whats going on. Maybe the engine you bought was a S5? The engine in your car should be a 13BT also. Unless someone put a 6 port NA in a turbo model??

 

Seriously, who cares if it's an '86 or an '87? The original poster needs help with a wiring problem, not the year of his car...

The oil sending units in all the 2nd gens (and all the 1st gens, and all other Mazda rotaries...) are in the same spot under the oil filter. It would REALLY help if you post pictures of the two engines because with the minimal description you are providing, it's impossible to know what you're seeing...

I was actually more interested in the VIN to determine if the car was a Turbo II or a turbo swap. Considering the OP isn't really too sure of what he's got on his hands, it's helpful information to have.
