'93 rx7 touring edition. fully stocked.

strong smell of gas in the oil filler cap and it kinda looks like grease from a deep fryer. white-ish yellow color.... the picture will speak for itself...

 

All normal.

* There is blow-by of fuel which dilutes the oil. You need to make sure to keep up with your scheduled maintenance of oil changes.

* The yellowish junk is from condensation in the oil system. Clean out the cap and as much as you can on the upper portion of the filler neck. It happens on several vehicles as it's not just a rotary nuisance.

 

ok thanks but i have had the car now for about 10 months and its only started doing it for the last 2 months just wondering why it would start now but the weather has been crazy from going to real cold to hott then back to cold ...and i have been doing my homework and trying to learn everthing i can about the car and asking u guys is my last resort cause i really try not to waste your time answering dumb ?s like this but you guys really are helping me out more then u know so thanks alot and i have been doing all the maintenance that i know about and when do it. cant treat my rx7 like a bum the rx7 need the best and guys on the this site are it

 

as said perfectly normal.

 

flooded?

 

How many times have you changed the oil in 10 months? Do you premix?

 

^ what he said...plus the fact these cars run low 11s AFR (if not 10s!) at full boost, and essentially any boosted motor running that rich will have fuel dilution issues

get your oil analyzed for wear metals

 

um i changed it 3 times and this may sound dumb but what is premixing?

 

wow, these cars run a 10.??:1 A/F under full boost?? wow, that is crazy.

 

they can, that's pretty rich, but sometimes necessary

and yes, it's normal, no need to worry about this
