Hey Dave;
   When I was building my plane, my buddy that helped with the test flying
questioned my use of the rotary but by the time we finished the test flying
he came to admire it (he really liked that it kept running even after we
severely detonated it until after we got back on the ground), but a few
years ago he chose to buy a flying BD4 with an O-360. He flew it once,
before having to have the engine rebuilt. And FI update.  For $45K. And now
2 years later he's still only a couple of weeks away from flying again.....
So don't give up, thinking the alternative will always be easy.

But as for your current problem.  Ever hear of a dye kit? I've got one and
only used it once but it was worth it. Add a pack of fluorescence dye
powder to coolant. Run engine. Use black light type of flashlight and look
for traces of bright dye. All included in kit.
