This is an entirely new symptom that has never been seen before (at least
by me). The only logical explanation would be a defective rotor housing
(too narrow in one place) causing the side housings to be brought into contact
with the sides of the rotor when it heated up. Remember that Ed's
engine was very 'tight' after his last overhaul which was NOT normal for
a 2nd gen engine and should be cause for concern.
While this is the 'logical' conclusion, I think it is very
unlikely. The cause will probably be something unexpected and maybe not
ever explained. Ed seems to get all of these : )

Subject: [FlyRotary] Where's Ed
Can anyone give a status report
on Ed Anderson’s coolant leak? Is he still in LA? Has he
determined the source of the leak?
