RX-7 Overheating pt 1
January 1st, 2009The RX-7 started to over heat recently and radiator fluid started to be pushed out of the radiator. Keith has been forced to add water after driving his car. We suspected that exhaust was leaking into the cooling system so we used decided to inlist the help of our smog machine. After running the engine we placed the smog machines pick up tube into the overflow tank. We immediately saw the HC go up to 700+.
Keith will have to replace a seal in the engine. Apparently there are two types of seals. He choose to use the rubber seal. I guess that turned out to be a wrong decision. After he removes the engine and disassembles it, we will know more.
