yeah I didnt think I did. Its just acting like a honda I used to have with symptoms the same. I was running it hard one day and it felt like it "gave" and got ALOT louder really sudden....lost all power and it wont stay at idle. Its cranks, and will run if I hold it at high idle, no leaks, no ther noises but it got louder..almost go-cart sounding now...I thought it was my downpipe at first..then I got someone to look at it, and they said my compression is little to none and oil is mixed with the water or vice versa...the engine itself is only got approx 40,000...this is my first rotary and I love it. Im just in the dark about what I can do without replacing the engine. Thanks for any help you could offer

Rebuild! I think it costs about the same unless you are buying a rebuilt engine and eating the core charge. And if you buy a used engine you never know what you're getting...it's risky.

Thanks guys. This might sound stupid but who do I contact about getting the car to Tennesee? Ive never had to get a car moved that far. DO just contact a tow company? I figure the price might be outrageous, is there a easier way? if not Ill still send it by tow..I just want it back and running if you know what I mean
