Hi, I have a 1988 RX7, I have water in the oil, it looks like a milk shake. I have disassembled the front of the motor all the way to the timing chain. One of the freeze plugs looks like it might have leaked. ? Any help would be great.
That isn't the timing chain, its the oil pump chain, no timing chain in a rotary. I agree with Kansas, pressurize the system and make sure you know where its coming from before you think you fixed it, and have to tear it all back apart
Most of time you can see a hole in the freeze plug or a brown water stain, poke around with an ice pick or something sharp don't be afraid to scrap a little if the plug is good you won't poke through it. If in doubt change it. Be sure to but some sealant around it and clean the edges of the block.
