I bought engine kit from mazdatrix for 84 rx7, and i dont recall where these go, this is my first rebuild.
Thanx

 

In the engine .














Actually, I think that your handy manual should tell you...The one loks like an oil seal though...I have no idea though, lol

I always say that if you have extra parts, and the thing your working on still works, then it was over-engineered.

 

Good one!

Kinda like the German engineering phylosophy...... "Why build something with one part when two will work just as well"

well sorta.....

 

lemme guess you got your enhgine back together bolted into the car evrythign hooked up then you saw those parts left?

hehe anw jk i dunno check your manual doodly like budy up^ there sed hehe

 

From left to right
1-Rear stationary gear o-ring
2-Water pump housing shims (Shame on you TJ )
3-Next row upper look like oil fitting seal (front cover or rear housing) Lower small one I dunno, cant tell ( I got no memory)
4-Main pulley bolt seal

 

My mantra; Murphy's Law of inanimate reproductivity

If you take something apart & put it back together enough times, eventually you will have two of them

 

Thanxs for all the help, so far i got front housings and rotor, middle and rear rotor housing.

 

So are you just building a motor in the passenger seat of your car? An engine stand might be a little easier...

 

lol I knew that comment was coming....

hehe

 

Yeah, whats up with that?

 

my thoughts exactly. whats up with that?

 

I dont have a garage our space inside of my house, so i just put it there when im not working on it, but i do have a work table set up in backyard.

 

Now that's dedication...lol

 

Ahhh crap, lol. I KNEW that too, lol. Oh well, maybe Ill get it next time .

Engine is now together and in car, but i havent got it runing yet, engine cranks but it doesnt start, i checked the spark plugs and fuel system and everything is working good. Got someone that works on rx7s to check it out wensday, what else should i check out.

 

Fuel, air, compression, ignition, exhaust all at the right time. Thats all it needs to run. One is messed up. You need to look carefully at each individual thing and what could be stopping one of them.

You sure you got the ign timing right?

 

Dont you mean Chrysler? They like to use 10 parts where one would be fine

 

thanxs for all the help, i will go through everything again

 

You mean MOPAR?!

M = mostly
O = outdated
P = parts
A = arranged
R = randomly

example: the late model 2.7L DOHC Chrysler has the water pump located behind the timing cover... so guess where the coolant goes when the water pump springs a leak? Engineering brilliance!

 

Timing cover has to come off to change the water pump on the 3.0L V6 of my Mazda 929, as well. I don't see why coolant on the timing belt would be a problem, though. That sucker's never slipping.

 

@ ASEmaster
Are you really a ASE master tec?

You shoudl know 99.9% of the imports out now have the water pump behind the timing belt cover...
