Fc rx7 Turbo II possible blown motor?
Hey everybody, new to the rotary engine thing. Bought a turbo two that would flood alot, and smoke even after it is warmed up. Was pulling up to a light and the car shut off. Turned it back on to hear a tapping or skipping type of sound, increased with revs. i think the apex seals were bad before, but I have noclue what this sound is now. i will post a link to the video below. if anybody has a clue, thank you.

Test the compression

Will do. Bad compression means bad apex seals I assume.

in my experience, when an apex seal goes the engine will barely run much less sit there and idle like that.

Did you do a compression test?

sounds more like the engine is now off balance, possibly a rotor that is lightly tapping the side of the housing but could be none of the above and just a semi clogged fuel injector or fouled spark plug.
