I know that white smoke is usually caused by water in the combustion chamber, but how does this happen in my 88 rx7? Thank you...

Usually a bad coolant O-ring is the culprit. It goes betwen the rotor housing & the flat housing.

'Better be checkin' that out.  Not good.

How does hydrolock affect a rotory?  Anyone know?  Will it do the same kind of damage as it does to a piston engine?
