Hi,
    Can anyone help me,i thought my car was only flooded and the cat was gone as it would not start so i replaced the plugs with new 9\'s all round and poked out the inner cat which did help and got it started again but my mechanic tested the compression and it has compression on one side but none on the other and the coolant is acting up and losing water i think somewhere .Is this the apex seals that are gone ,is it rebuiltville time.Where can i get diagrams of the water system and how it works so we can see how the engine/seals etc works.Has anyone any info they could give me so i can get it sorted asap and get this car on road !

Sorry to say it sounds like its rebuild time mate.

yep rebuildsville, my water seals went and ate water for fun, apex seals were in tact, but loads of water in the rotor chambers  therefore wetting the plugs and stopped it firing up.
