Ok, im lost.
Alright well my problem is somthing i dont know.
Today while i was driving, my car started to bog, then lost all power. I got it parked popped the hood, and the hose that connects to the thermostat was dripping a little coolant. I looked below and noticed a big pool, and thought it was coming from there.
I stated the car again and it drove find for about a minute, then did the exact same thing.
What could this problem be?
I drive and 86 N/A with 175 XXX km's.

Ok this is where the coolant looks to be dripping from:
This is not my engine, just an example.
While i was driving it started to buck, the gauges read as normal, but it started to buck for a second, then the RPM's started to drop, So i pulled over to check what was wrong, and it looked like coolant was leaking.
I started it up, fired up fine, then it started to do the same thing, it drove fine for a little bit, started to buck, lost RPM's and then died.
This is all the information i can give because this is all that happend.
Sorry for the bumps.

Why are you driving around with a coolant leak?
Did anyone tell you overheating the rotary engine is BAD?
Fix the coolant leak first, then we can take care of the other stuff.
If it's leaking at the upper rad hose connection, it's either the hose, the clamp, or the thermostat housing???
