not sure, but need help.

ok i dont know anything bout rotary;s.

i hav not seen it myself but she is saying that the whole exhaust from the o2 sensor back is red hot. she said at night you could see it glowing inderneath the car w/o looking up underneath it.

i have no clue what would cause this cuz i dont know jack bout these cars.

i also dont know any of the spec;s on her car. so if you need any more info i will try and get it to you.

any and all help is appreciated.
TIA

If it has the stock exhaust system on it, it is a good possibility that one of the catalytic convertors could be clogged. That would causec a build up of exhaust gases and make the exhaust piping very, very hot.

Regardless of it being stock exhaust or not- as long as it has a catalytic converter usually, a glowing exhaust means a clogged/blocked catalytic converter.
