[Teighto]

Right i managed to get me one:)  will post pics once i have picked it up at weekend

so..........................


1.Once i get it on my drive i wanna do a Oil change  any suggestions on what type is better

2.what type brake fluid should i use and should i just top up or completley flush out and refill ??

3. change the Coolant - which type is best ?

4. anything else i should do

[Jono FD3]

Oil & oil filter......I\'m under the understanding that Castrol GTX is good in rotarys (this is what I use & have never had a problem!!)

You want to run a blue antifreez as the pink or red aparantly corrodes your rotor housings

I wouldn\'t worry about your brake fluid unless it is discolourd (black) this is a sign of seal failyre in eather the clutch system or brak as they use the same reservoir.
check the air filter & give it a good scrub!!!

Brake fluid is a little low any idea as to what type to top up ?

Dot 4 ........

Also low brake fluid usually indicates your pads have some wear.

[Teighto]

ok will get pads checked out as well

where is best place to purchase new ones ??

[Hayward North]

I get mine from ebay, perchase green stuff before i need em, then i allways have a set in spear.

Low brake fluid shouldn\'t need topping up, it should just mean your pads are getting low! Unless there\'s a leak, just keep an eye on the level and if it\'s hardly moving then it\'s just normal and when you change the pads, the brake pistons get pushed back in and all being well fill up the resiviour again

All part of the design

ahhh right nice one !!!

Pink antifreeze,such as from Halfords,the 5 year one is very good.
I guess you have an RX7, if so then the Castrol GTX 10/40 is good oil.
