Hi guys - new guy here (both to the forums and the world of rotary engines). I'm from Cincinnati, just bought a 91 FC vert for $750. Starts and runs, but has had some coolant issues in the past that will, from what I've heard, probably result in a rebuild or swap.



I'm excited and I'll post some pics later

Thanks! Ran into an issue yesterday - key was broken off in the ignition when I bought it, but now the steering is locked, key is turned to 'lock' and I can't get it to move. About 5' from my garage to - I was pretty upset yesterday, needless to say, heh.



If this had happened INSIDE the garage, I wouldn't mind nearly as bad.

if you want to go the hillbilly route, jam a screwdriver in behind the key, you should be able to turn it then. otherwise you'll have to buy a new turnkey that's matched to your vehicles key by vin code lol
