Update
Pulled the plugs yesterday, after maybe 800 miles. The front housing, Leading position plug had a brownish liquid on it. Looks like I have a small coolant seal leak. Yippie!! Being that I don't really give a shit, since I will replace the entire engine, and upgrade the radiator at the same time, I am going to block the heater core, and use some Bars Ceramic Head Gasket repair 'magic bottle'. I know people hate that shit in a rotary, but I have friends that have run it for over 2 years in their rotaries before developing any recurring issues.

Car is still running good. Just got my best fuel mileage out of a tank ever. 260 miles, 12.5 gallons.
Not too bad, the locals I ask average between 220-250 per tank, so I got a little better, since I wasn't beating it too hard. |

It is mostly highway miles, about 15 to work and then 15 back, with maybe 4 miles in town to pick up my son.
My TII used to average 28mpg on the highway, and about 15-16 in the city. I could leave here and make it all the way to DGRR without filling back up until I go there. |
Might be selling the RX-8. Don't worry though, will be staying in the rotary gang. Just need to recover some cash from the baby expenses, and am saving for the next rotary ride Mazda releases.
I am looking at a few FC's to hold me over.... If someone wants it, let me know, I am letting it go CHEAP. |
You are so ADD with your cars... :rofl:
|
I didn't say I was for sure selling it, but if someone wants to buy it, then let it be.
|
Man I haven't turned a wrench on my 8 in months.
