Augh, some of you might have seen a few of my igniter questions earlier...
Here's my tale of woe, yet to be concluded:

So we got 2 feet of snow here in DC. Right before the snow I moved the Rx into the driveway, let it run a little to get warm, then went inside and drank a bottle of wine. Two days later, when I am dug out, the car wont start. So after going over it I notice that the trailing plugs arent firing and thus the new igniter. Still, no go. Coils are good, plugs are new, has fuel etc etc. I had the battery from a dodge 1500 van in it earlier, trying to get it to catch, and it *almost* would go. Maybe I lost an apex seal? I'm pretty sure the fuel is getting to the motor 'cause it smelled quite flooded earlier. Once this new snow stops Ill be back at it -any suggestions from anyone on what to turn my attention to would be appreciated!

Yeah if its a 12a drip oil into the carbs and into the rotor housing. If its a 13b just do the housings. Just two squirts of oil for each housing. This will restore compression.

 

I've never heard of this -how much oil will I be dripping into the carbs of my 12a?

Before you go nuts dumping oil down the carb, check this thread out: https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...light=no+start

That basically covers all situations where your car will not start.
