sounds like oil, i guess check all ur seals and change ur oil.

Ahh.. Don't listen to this adivce as if it were law.. that's just some peoples opinion. A lot of folks think that but synthetic oils these days far out perform the natural oils in thermal stability and rheological peoperties.

Many dinosaur oils cannot maintain their Pv/Yp and FV's with the heat a rotary puts out hence I use Synthetic. Dyno oils also shear-thin (Tixotropic [<s.p?] nature) a lot more than synthetic oils and they also thin with temp alot more than synthetics.


$1.00 Keep the $00.98 change ......

There are too many possibilities ..but you sound ok.. that's pretty common..

Do you have the factory Down Pipe installed ??
Are your Cats intact or did you remove/gut them ??
What year is the car and is the ECU original or aftermarket ??
Does it have an EGR Valve ??

Email me a number to call you .. let the doc take a look - 3rdGen7@gmail.com

3rdGen7, true what u said.... just advised he go 'all natural' for now if he's new ith the engine type...any problems with u when using synthetics? no residue build up? what type seals u using man? hope u dont mind the barrage of questions, but it kinda hard to find ppl how knw their rotaries indepth nah...n not following ppl's word like testament..

Ok folks the problem was the seals in the turbo..i may have to get it replaced or get a new one as the case may be. Its a series 5 turbo.On the issue of oil, i was told never to use synthetics so im not. Also i saw people adding some oil in the tank as well..can someone clarify on that please? thanks

[ray2cool]

that is why i will never buy a rotary

sigh..

I emailed you some info ..check your email.

What seals on the turbo leaking ?? The FD3S Sequential Twins you're talking about ??? And is it the twins from a series 5 3rd Gen you've got ?? .. I'm not sure I understand you..

Ok.. the choice of oil is yours bud.. but I'd suggest that you get a 2nd opinion on your mechanic when 3/4 of the rotary world out there running Red Line Synthetic/Royal Purple/ Castrol Synthetic/Mobil 1 Synthetic/ etc. I think I may have been the first to be running Red Line Engine oil, Gear box oil and Rear end oil because I use to import it myself back in 99-2000 prior to it being available locally.

Some people add oil to their tank ( Me include) because the FD's come with a factory OMP (Oil Meetering Pump) that injects a little oil into the engine to lube..so it does burn a little oil .. the added oil can be for several reasons.. either they have an aftermarket turbo/ Ported NA/removed the OMP and/or need a little more oil because the OMP does not know that you've changed your turbos (more air/more power/more heat/more everything) and .. it's not a bad idea to run a little more oil in the when running higher than stock boost... I change my engine oil every 3000 kms.

I pre-mix a *special fuel additative and 2 stroke motor oil in my tank.. actually, I have it pre-mixed at home and just add it prior to fill up. I made a nifty Xls spreadsheet to do the volumetric calculations ..

He can listen to whom ever he likes really.. it's up to him .. but I use Redline Synthetic in the enigne. No problems and I've opened my engine several times.. it's in purrrrrfect shape..

In the Box, it took away knotchyness after I upgraded my internals to a jdm aftermarket unit.

Sry.. seals are top secret .. not too cumfy giving out details on the net.. sry .. maybe at a tuner lime or sumthin......
