i got exhaust in my radiator it bubbles up and smells like gas made me kinda light headed so i know its exhaust.whats the fix and how long will it last in this condition? no smoke out the pipes.

 

You have no white smoke coming out the exhast at all?But at the same time you have exhast smell in the rad?Pull the plugs to see if they have had coolant on them..like whitetish burnt residue or slightly rust..or you might even smeel the sweet smell of burn coolant on them..

 

You blew the engine. those bubbles are compression getting by the seals into the coolant system making bubbles that you see.

Basically a seal went..it will get worse....

 

no smoke i changed the plugs and they seemed to have coolant on them. i figurted the motor was shot ,but what seal and can it be replaced fairly simple?can any recommened any local shops that rebuild rotories? or any interested in a 91 rx-7 not sure of model.has turbo mirrors, wing 5 speed,88000 miles

 

Your coolant seals are going bad.. I wouldnt say its blown or went to shit untill white smoke blows out the exhast..but your time is limited and watch your temp guage..

Levi should be able to help you with your rebuild..

You cant just change coolant seals.. you will need a full engine gasket set..then once you crack open the engine you have to check your rotor housings for flaking and wear..

Then pending on your milage and the wear on your apex seals.. and how long you plan on keeping the car..determins if you need apex seals..

I know it sounds getto..but you can put in 100. in gaskets to get it back running..or $100. plus another $gestimate of 500-800. on new seals..

Its up with you ..

 

that is the funniest thing ever since levi said " youre one funny little fucker" hahahahhaha

 

im just gonna save up to get an ls-1 swap. all i need is a little time. i just use when it rains

I dont know where he gets "little" im about his age..and alot bigger than him.. He thinks im just a kid..but thats what I want him to keep thinking..

 

@ MADdstang

Since your going to be saving for an new engine..

What will you be doing with yours and the parts?
I may need a couple of things like the alt... rad... maybe the rotors.. if its 89-91

 

i have a TII rad,but as for rotars and alt i still need them.i wont be swaping for at least 12 months,plus im swapping one out right now.
I also have a brand new RB header.was going to install ,but thatd be a waste o time now.
