Could happen.. the eccentric shaft (basically looks like a crankshaft) could have movement, lol

I was waiting for somebody to say something like that. I think they look just like a camshaft cause they're not actually connected to the rotors and they have lobes like a cam

http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/...ine-output.jpg

The output/eccentric shaft has round lobes mounted eccentrically, meaning that they are offset from the centerline of the shaft. Each rotor fits over one of these lobes. The lobe acts sort of like the crankshaft in a piston engine. As the rotor follows its path around the housing, it pushes on the lobes. Since the lobes are mounted eccentric to the output shaft, the force that the rotor applies to the lobes creates torque in the shaft, causing it to spin

sorry. i ment intake manifold gasket. lol.

i aint that stupid, i was just tired.
so stop correcting me!

hell yeah im gonna get an exhauast like that. but i think i would rather get the racing beat exhaust. it is the best. period.

Re:THAR SHE BLOWS!!!
 
sounds like you completely lost compression due to carbon lock. there is a vacuum line on the right side of the manifold that you can pour ATF in and it will loosen all the carbon up and lube your seals. just another 1 of 101 uses for your all purpose ATF.

kain 03-21-2004 07:51 PM

Re:THAR SHE BLOWS!!!
 
that is a last resort thing.
befor i go to rotaryresuurection, ill do the atf trick behind my dads back. lol. if thiat doesnt work, i dont know whaty will, and ill have to get it either looked at, or rebuilt.

Re:THAR SHE BLOWS!!!
 
Rotary's can make gobs of power, but they don't last long. U probably need new apex seals too, if there's that many miles on it. Might even need the nickasil lining redone...most rotary's with high miles do.

kain 03-23-2004 08:02 PM

Re:THAR SHE BLOWS!!!
 
low and behold the motor isnt dead. it still doesnt start, but the rotors show over 90 compression.

me is hapopy. i dont get power to the spark plugs. probobly dead relay to coils. blah.
