i have a '86 rx7...

i blew an O-ring and got it fixed within the next few days...

but since the day before i got that fixed my car is having a very very hard time starting/wont start at all...

it cranks and cranks and cranks and nothing...

i cleaned my spark plugs, they look like new now...

but i noticed something...

i have a pretty bad oil leak and when my car wont start and it finally does it has a whitish smoke come out and leaks ALOT out of somewhere near the front of the car, and it smells like oil and gas mixed...

and my leading spark plug's plug [hole] in the housing has oil in it and leaking out...



does anybody know what this is...

please help!

 

what about oil seals? is that the o ring you replaced? i would say its not good if oil leaks out your leading spark plug hole...i dont know too much about rotary engines though

 

Definatly sounds like an oil seal inside the engine is busted. You done a compression test?
