with bad oil seals the car should still idle ussually...

what colour is the smoke?? is it for sure oil burning?? if so...

id get the car compression checked as well just to see whats wrong.... does the car have normal power?? or does it barly start and barly run???

but to replace the oil seals(called oil control rings) , or apex seals(the most common failure point of the engine) is to pretty much rebuild the engine...

it would be similar amount of time/efford to replacing the piston rings..... pretty much a full rebuild....

if you have never worked on a rotary engine before, rebuilding it your self would be pretty difficult, but if your mechanically inclinded they have rebuild how to videos and stuff like that.

 

smoke is a blue color. and the car runs high and if you hit the gas in nutral is will try to cut out at 4ooorpms.
if i have to get it rebuild anyone know a ok price to get that done at?

 

ive seen anywhere from 1000-2500 depending on if its a local person u know or a full fledged rotary shop

 

so engine needs to be redone ok that sucks lol

 

yeah probably

, is the smoke reallly really bad? does the smoke ever clear up?? like only smokes when cold??
