yea fuel filters and oil filters have already been replaced and thermostat will be replaced when i do the coolant flush. and yes most of the fluids will be changed and prob. will get changed sooner then normal for the first half a year and i will definatly baby the car for a couple of weeks like a break in and ease her back into play.



so thank you so much if anyone has any other sugestions please feel free to help out and i'll do my best for you guyz.... (i'm only 16 with a decent amount of knowledge on the rotory engine) but i know basics and common sence type things

yeah, coolant hoses will probably need to be replaced and you could change all your vac lines to silicone.

i would recommend castrol gtx 20w50 non synthetic oil.also on the exhaust as far as cheapest and loudest id go with a corksport. i would also put some marvel mystery oil in the spark plug holes and crank the motor by hand once or twice and then let it sit for 24 hours. whem you start it up it will smoke like mad but dont worry it's normal. hold the revs up a bit until the smoking stops so the car wont die. this will help clean the engine out nice. a lot of people like using automatic transmission fluid for this but i dont trust it. atf eats rubber and there are alot of rubber seals inside a rotary engine. hope this helps some

Flush your oil cooler!!! Change all hose clamps. Change your fuel lines. Hope this helps. Good luck and congrats on the great deal!!!!

Definitely change your coolant hoses, oil lines and brake lines. Do the MMO/ATF trick, to loosen up all the gunk that has been growing inside the motor
