| ok im trying to sell my rx7 and ive had alot of interest in it, but the damn thing wont start. Ive got battery, ive got spark, ive got fuel and air, ive got apex seals luckily ha and it turns over and everything but wont fire up what is the problem
could it be i have to much fuel? im running i think 7psi at the moment in a carberated car and they recommend 4.5 psi?

| ok ill actually be helpful
if it just cranks, you need to check your timing, do you smell fuel, pull the plugs see whats going on
if it starts and dies, you have a vaccum leak of some sort
you need to be more specific with whats its doing | |

| Pull the plugs, put a small squirt of oil in each plug hole, clean/gap plugs and reinstall. If its flooded this should fix it, if not.... I'm useless on these motors. | |

| Well i had it running up until one day it just didnt wanna start after i was inside for couple hours. I have fuel i can see it going into the carb, i have i put in all new plugs and checked them to make sure they were sparking and they were, while doing this i blew out all the gas from the chambers.
It just cranks now but i have not touched timing since it was running so i dont understand why all of a sudden after driving it leaving it for 4-5 hours the timing could just magically be off
i am out of ideas tho | |

| 1. go buy starting fluid for cars 2. remove plugs, spray each one with brake clean, and let dry 3. squirt small amount of oil into each sparkplug hole 4.re-install sparkplugs 5, get someone to spray starting fluid into the carb as you turn the engine over. 6.call me and thank me when it is running | |
