earlier this summer I was in my break in period for my newly rebuild engine (new rotor housings, new apex seals, ect..) I put in a fluidine radiator and had some air bubbles. I was driving it around and not looking closely enough to the water temp, before I new it my water temp reached 125 degrees C. I got the air bubbles out and had the car tuned and everything was going great and thought I dodged a bullet. how ever for the last 2 months the car has been harder to start and a cloud of white smoke would blow out the exhaust. Now knowing that my coolant seals are blown i am wondering what rebuild kit i need to get. do i need to replace everything again including the apex seals or can i get away with just the coolant seals. can someone point me in the right direction in which kit to buy?
your imput would be greatly apprieciated.

 

the engine has less than 2500 miles on it. only 1500 after the tune.

 

everything should be fine. check specs, u should be able to just put in new coolant seals and be good to go.. call malloy mazda or goto atkinsrotary.com

 

You will need to replace the coolant seals, coolant o-rings on the engine studs, oil control rings, front cover gasket unless it is the metal gasket. Most everything else should be reusable.

 

2,500 and the oil control ring seals needs replacing? because it got hot? or just as a precaution when reopening a short block?

 

thanks for the info. Can just go to a mazda dealer to get those individual parts?

 

what is the technical name or the part # for the o-rings for the engine studs?
