anyone have a 7 and have this problem a lot.

Wow, you may have just blown your first 3rd gen rx7 motor. If you ever hear anything that sounds like it may be from your RX7.... PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY and check things out. You may have already overheated the motor enough to weaken a coolant seal. It only takes one time, and these motors can loose compression and need to be torn completely apart and re-sealed and may even require new housings $$$.


Let me know if you need me to check the car over for you before you drive it any longer... I may be able to help you save a lot of money. I left my number in another post and I put it back into my sig if you need to get ahold of me.
