When you get it replace the spark plug (always buy NGKs), get a new distributor cap + rotor, and new spark plug wires.
Time the engine, and any "miss" should be gone.

If not come back and let us know what she is doin to ya.



When in doubt, consult the search button. There is never ending great info on basically anything you could ever ask, and youll learn more than you ever expected to. haha

Welcome to the forum,
when I look back at the first RX-7 I bought for $600.00, I think it was quite possibly the best purchase I ever made, just be patient you will get back what you put into your car!

Ya, do the basic tune up like stated above. Should be all good. Check for rust behind the storage bins and the wheel wells. Then underneath, pretty much anywhere. Welcome to the forum. Check out the faq page , archives and teh search button is really usefull. These will come in handy for most ?s you have. God bless. Oh and post pics when you get it, a must here.
