I am cruising around having a good old time. BAM!! Oil level buzzer goes off. DAMN! I check it out. Oil is everywhere. I have not found the culprit for it yet. I am thinking it is something minor because it never did it before. I think it is the oil filter is not on tight enough. I am serious, it is everywhere. Even on the hood for christ's sake. Now it seems I have to take some water to it to clean that **** out tomorrow, and find the culprit of the problem.



More problems then I am not prepared for. But god damn, what a ******* awesome ride. As old as it is, it still turns heads. Even with the eyesore passenger door and sunroof. And I am getting high off of the gas and exhaust fumes. I can understand why you guys get hooked on rotaries. I will always have a rotary.

Me too. I sold my one and only piston car last year. It was a baja bug, which is cool for what it was, but it if I ever get another one, it'll get a rotary.



Get your oil thing fixed.

rowtareh

It is not fixed. I dunno what it is either. I figured oil filter, but nope. I have friggin coolant adding in with oil. What a damned mess. I filled up the coolant a few weeks ago, and it is running low already, and oil was already low. I don't think I need to be using synthetic on a Stock 13b N/A do I?



I will post pictures in a few minutes of what it looks like. I have a milk residue on the oil filler tube, and I don't know what it is. Pissing me off also, I was having a hella fun time driving that thing yesterday. Damn!!



Any help would be appreciated. I will also post this in 2nd gen section, since it has tapered off to an FC problem.

oil filler neck with white ****. i am thinking coolant.

front end with oil. it was worse. i cleaned it up a bit.

The PCV system may be having a problem which prevents it from sucking the slightly wet air from the oil filler tube.



The leaking oil may be a bad oil cooler hose. Especially since you said there is oil at the front of the engine bay.

I see nothing wrong under the engine. But there is obviously something wrong. I want to drive my baby. Should I add a quart of oil and see where it is coming from. I figured that would be a good idea, but it looks like it is coming from everywhere.



Would a moderator move this to the 2nd gen specific forum. I would probably get more answers there. Thank you.

Fawk. It is oil cooler hoses. I started it up, and oil leaked everywhere's. I am guessing new oil cooler hoses, and a new oil cooler. That'll cost me and I am on inspection tags. ****! Too many problems with this car. Well, at least it is not a blown O oil ring.



Time to go take it apart I suppose.

Im not sure what your FC set up is but I have a spare FD oil cooler and hose. If the bano fitting is the same you can use it till you get your parts.

Also not to alarm you but last time you were over I did notice the champagne bubbles in the filler neck. It would be a good idea to pressure test the coolant system.
