New Obsession in TX

Hey I'm Austin. So a few days ago I decided it was time to get rid of my car audio set up. Today I was offered a 86 GTU in trade and went to check it out on my lunch break. Well needless to say there is now a 86 GTU sitting outside! previous owner said it was blown. 20 minuets after getting it home I had it idling and managed to do a few laps around the block. It was instant I'm hooked lol. I'm eager to jump into the tech section and get some help with my first rotary.

Keep an eye on the water level and the overflow tank. If the overflow tank fills up and overflows it's a bad coolant seal in the motor. It's possible this is why they thought it was blown. That's what was wrong with the rotary in my fc when I bought it.
