they fixed it thou before i got the car back and they were hoping that not too much damage was done. But a lot was done i guess so the apex's on the second rotar went and now i need a rebuild.

rotar = rotor

it makes some sense, i think 1revvin7 just isnt getting the whole association between the oil line and OMP....





his oil injector line is what went, apparently on the rear rotor, and apparently thats the apex seal that went. I guess it's plausible, if the rear rotor wasnt getting oil injected for a lot of driving time.

i got a reman for 2000 from maloy mazda and vosko and my friend are doing the work but, then again i don't have 10k in mods so it probably won't be easy for you to do the work your self

$5000...sheesh...yet again, I remind people to learn about their cars or have deep pockets and lots of time on their hands. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683621.gif



Either way, $5000 doesn't seem bad considering that they'll be getting a lot of extra stuff done.

ah.. I understand now, I thought you meant some other oil line, like an oil cooler or turbo line.... That really sucks! Premix is the only way to go.

That blows.

-=RX-7 KID=- 05-10-2003 12:03 AM

Yea once i get it back i will pre-mix from now on no matter what
