Unhappy Help! New owner needs help in Barrie!

Hi guys,

I've been on here for a while, but haven't really posted much, just content to watch and learn, but now I need help.

Here's the situation. I picked up a '93 R1 from texas. It's here in my garage now.
This is my first rotary car, and i'm worried that it might have a bad o-ring, as it burped some coolant onto the driveway after i took it around the block. the other problem is that I asked the dealer to make sure that there was antifreeze in the car and not just water, because of our colder temps, and it was in transit last week. Suffice it to say, he didn't have the coolant tested, and upon inspection when it was delivered, it appears to be 95% water. I'm worried that it may have frozen on the transport, and caused a problem that way. There's a couple of other issues - i'm worried that it won't pass driveclean as it has a downpipe instead of the precat.

I need some guidance, and possibly a local rotary expert to come take a look. I can't drive it because the ministry won't give me a permit until i get the safety done.. but i can't drive it to get the safety done without the permit... arrrgh!

Matt
