Hey guys.... I'm losing water now on a regular basis. always adding water and the overflow is disappearing as well. I can't tell if there is a leak because when i fill the radiator water gets all over.

I was told to pull a spark plug? how duz that tell me if i blew a water seal?

I have no over heating , just the buzzer when its low water

I have no white smoke. nothing seams bad. just water is there then isnt.

i run with the cap off and it duznt bubble, the water level come up but duznt spill out, when i pull the throttle the water level sinks a little.

Can someone point me in the right direction? i'll have the car up on the lift tomorrow so any help now would be appreciated. I know i will pressurize the cooling system and check for leaks but i can't tell if the engine is eternally bleeding

Once you fill the radiator with water, park the car in a dry place so you can see where the water is coming from. Check the water pump, radiator & hose that connects to the radiator. Worst case scenerio, it could be one of your freeze plugs from the rear housing. To find out you would need to pull the motor out.

im taking it to the shop tomorrow, at least i can get her on a lift. ill take the radiator cap off and put on the ***** pimp to pressurize the system to see where she leaks. it better be the stupid radiator or hoses. damn

actually.. they make the radiators so taht those plastic parts are removeable and repalcalble. should be able to take it to a rad. shop and have it repaired. or replace it. although out there in the middle of the ocean im not sure how many rx7s are tearing the islands apart these days. so gettin it repaired mighjt be easier
