Hey all.
I bought a rx7 from a member on this forum on sunday and its been super fun :Laugh but.... on day three of rx7 ownership and I seem to have an oil leak!
The car is a 92, rebuilt, single turbo and I spotted two, inch circular patches of oil on the drive last night.
I checked under the car briefly this morning and the bottom of the sump (?) looks wet possibly from oil but I will need to have a proper check.
Do you guys have any thoughts on what part I should pay special attention to for checking for leaks, or just any advice on this.
Thanks guys
Hi Mate - Hows your luck :(
Did you top up with oil like i said? I ask as sometimes if you get a drop or two that miss these may drip down after the engine has been hot.
Reworx performed a sump seal and replaced the oil return from the turbo as they were both leaking. Both were dry as a bone when the work was done but its worth checking, if either are leaking again then i am sure they would take a look as the work was only done just before rotorstock.
Let me know if you want me to pop over to take a look.
That\'s brilliant mate, I will check these points.
Thanks for the support as well :)
No worries mate, don\'t like seeing problems this early on!
I did just check my drive where the car was last week and there is no sign of oil so it looks like it has only just started.
As i said if you want me to take a look before it goes up on the ramp give us a buzz.
Thumps up to Gman for being so helpful, how it should be :King
