ok i just got my first rx7 tonight the guy sed he was driving it and it started smoking and just quit on him it has about 190,000 miles on it, its a n/a i havnt tried anything yet cuz i just got home. i dont know a whole lot about rotor motors but i do know a little. the oil smells like gas and its full is as far as i got thanks in advance. oh yeah i also only paid 300 bones for it!!!

 

ok had a good look at it today the motor has no compression like maybe 1 psi if that that was after i tried to unflood it that didnt work so i check compression with a modified tester so i'm thinking motors blown time for a new turboII motor!!

 

well im also new to rotary but with 1 psi u probably have a blown apex seal

 

Welcome to the wonderful world of rotarys, spending outrageous amounts of money, fixing previous owners stupidity.

 

I am pulling the engine from my 88 GXL N/A if you need one. it wont be out for another 3 weeks probably but I just thought I'd throw it in here. PM me with any questions
