Found my OMP lines are leaking on my '84 rx7. Upon calling the local Mazda dealership, they say they can no longer get the lines. Are there any aftermarket sources out there, or some other alternative to dealing with the problem? I just bought the car less than a week ago, and still trying to sort all it's quirks out. Idles rough, almost stalls when you push the accelerator from idle, noisy wheel bearing and rattling rear shock.

Thanks in advance for any info,

ok for the OMP line you can just premix your gas, there is some arguements about the amount to premix but I think its 1/4 of a quart each fill up. The stalling from idle can be several things: a vacuum leak, bad timing, bad a/f mixture, or the same problem as me a blown ignitor. Take a timing light to your plugs and make sure they are getting spark. Since you just purchased it I recommend doing a full tune up: new fuel filter, new air filter, new plugs (NGK!), wires, engine oil, tranny oil, diff fluid, new coolant... All that good stuff! Good luck, oh yes and the best advice I can give you is unless you have a local rotary shop don't take your vehicle to a shop even the mazda dealerships... You would be amazed at how little some actually know about rx7's

yeah, mazdatrix. they are pre-bent and no hassle, like trying to make your own.

That is a great thread...I'll be doing that when I put my motor back in.

I've asked a 2nd gen mod to copy that thread on rebuilding the lines to this section so I can archive it.

In the meantime, I'm archiving this thread, which links to it anyway.
