turns out it wasn't starting for a reason that didn't include the 7 year old fuel... i thought L1 was front rotor and L2 rear, so i had em backwards... as soon as i figured that out, it started right up first cranks. but it wasn't without issue... now i find a terrible oil leak, couldn't figure out where it came from, so i got a cardboard box, busted it down, and put it under the car, then started it again... the oil cooler has a pretty massive leak, but i'm not sure exactly where from... called up atkins dan today, i'm gonna get a 86 oil cooler off him for 40 bux, and i'm gonna have some oil cooler lines made at a local hydraulics shop, since i definately can't afford to get them from mazdatrix... anyways on with the vid! its 1 meg, divx with mp3 audio

yay... btw yeah i know i hit 5000 rpm, the bearings aren't new they r the ones that came in the motor, so don't gotta break those in, only thing needing a break in is the apex seals need to seat properly... but all in all it runs real smooth... i couldn't get it to idle any lower than 1500 rpm, but i didn't have long to mess with it...

and yes, i was on the phone, so u get to hear me sound like a dummy lol

and yes, i know the oil pressure guage isn't working, i don't know where the wire went!!!

L1 IS the front rotor, and L2 is the rear.

kettlman just informed me in my other thread that i was correct, and what it means since it runs when they r backwards is my timing is off, probly because my pulley wasn't put on in the right orientation to the motor when it was built... i got the motor built by atkins, and it had 1 bolt on the pully loosely holding it on, so i tightened it all up like that

Congrats man, but you damn near had me running out to my car to switch my plug wires around to see if it would run better!!!
