How's it going?
TL;WR 91 FC3S VERT Has A lot of White Smoke Flowing Out Of The Exhaust.
I recently bought my FC3S about 2 months ago and i didn't notice any problems at first but a few minor problems on the inside. (Loose parts) Now i started to notice that there's some problems on the exterior of the car like for an ex. The trunk won't close. (easy fix)
Now about the white smoke.. every morning when i start my car, it produces a great amount of white smoke from the exhaust (enough to cover a full garage in a matter of 15 seconds) and for a while i didn't think much of it because people told me that it's normal for an older car. It would go away after i let the car warm up a bit so it wasn't my main concern. But now it's producing MORE smoke then normal so i know it's not because it's an older car. A friend told me it's because of my headers but i looked online and notice that rotary engines don't run with headers so that's not the case. Another friend told me that i should just rebuild my engine because... well i'm not entirely sure. but if you know about/ had this problem with your FC than please shoot me a reply. THANKS!
P.s. Here's a video if you would like a visual. The problem is seen within the first 7 seconds. the rest of the video can be skipped. FC3S Mechanical Problems White Smoke - YouTube

 

You got a blown coolant seal...rebuild time for you.

 

Well... ****. Ahaha thanks for replying. would you possibly know of any thread that deals with this? if anything thanks for checking out this thread!!

 

The best piece of advice I can give you is to Compression check your engine before doing anything to it.
Also look at the cooling system to see if you are losing coolant or getting Air in it.That is a sure sign of coolant seal failure.
A Guy by the name of AARON CAKE has Youtube videos up of his builds and is the "cat's ***" in rebuilding info.
check out his website at Aaron's Homepage also.

 

 

whew!..sometimes I hate posting that word!Glad to have a 2nd opinion from a guy that knows!

 

and please don't use that original font, it's horribly too small and made my brain hurt trying to read it.

 

Thanks for suggesting Arron Cake, I was watching all of his videos last night to check it out and figured out that i don't have connections to any of the tools that he had. just notice that my options are to have someone else look at my baby
Also sorry, this was my first post to a thread so i was messing with the texts. Again. sorry; now i know.

 

Not sure how close the Milky Way is to Vegas, but you might check with RotaryEvolution on that. ^

 

I second that

 

Coolant seals. Rebuild time.

 

hmm..according to the Late John Denver,
Almost Heaven is West Virginia.
They got a lot of "stars" in Vegas..so maybe the Milky way is Downtown Vegas??
