Fc3s?
 
Hey PPl Im new and am in the process of purchasing an Fc3s non turbo. I forgot what year. What should I look for on the purchase. I have almost little or no knowledge on the rotary engines. the person says it starts, it needs a new clutch and it shot a 7ft flame awhile back. also it needs new apex seals. So how much do yall think it is worth? How hard is it to replace the apex seals?

apex seals=expensive $ rebuild talk him low reall low. THe car probally isnt running well enough to take for a test drive.

yeah i know i have 2 more cars and they both need rebuilt but i would rather rebuild a rotary any day. the other cars are both 240s. Would the car still start with bad apex seals and if it did about how long would it last.

seven foot flame?
 
have anything to do with a apex seal being thrown through the exhaust at warp speed mister sulu?..DON"T BUY IT!..help this guy get a good first car guys ..GOD!..start the guy out with a piece of crap and we know he will go back to riceland for sure!At least give him a shot at Rotary!!!not someone else's head-ache!..somebody sell this guy a car!..that runs!(OK)

lol I know I love rotary's and riceland is a no no. My other cars were never ricey. There was an F150 and two 240s. I think i will rebuild the rotary myself if it comes to that it's a good start and a great way to learn about them.
