I have been having problems starting my gsl-se and I looked on the faq page and I think I have narrowed the problem down to the fuel pump or fuel filter and I need to know where the fuel filter is. In the tank maybe? Any guidance on the issue would be awesome.

 

its in front of the tank under the car. on the drivers side.

 

Do it starts if u tray to puch it runing ?

 

yes I have done that before

 

If its starts when u run it my geses is that u Apex is broken

 

thanks tempusfugitive

 

also replace the clamps while your at it. i didn't the first time i replaced mine and i lost a good portion of a tank overnight

 

sorry But when a wankel dont start normaly.. Most time is somting rong whid the compresion. so u need to make it get more RPM so the Apex seals can get out if the spring is flaten,ore one apex is damage

 

but it will also start normally after I let it sit for a day like its flooded or something. Not that this is related to the starting problem but it also lacks a lot of power

 

Its more easy to start it when its a cold engine .. then a hot one .. dont cost that much to redo the engine .. If noting more then 1 apex is damage and noting more. Hope that u housing is stil find. My strongest recomandation is dont start it more befor u get it fix becose u can damage more then .

 

Thanks for your help. Don't like the news because I don't know many people in the Kansas City area who work on Rx-7's. Shitty deal

 

Sorry can't help u ther I live in Norway ..But i ges meny in here know somone close u can ship it to. shudent bee to fare off. Do u know enuf to rip the engine out off u car ?

 

yes, with the help of a friend I could do it

 

Then it shudent bee a problem to ship it to somone that can rebuild it for u But i dont know enyone in the US that u shud ask Lets hope somone read this post ore u can ask at 1gen forum of anyone have somone u can ask to help u rebuild it for u. If u can sent a short block engine to get rebuild my geses its the chipest way to do it. thats meen take off all the stuff that sits on the engine.. becose thats takes time to take off and but back on but u can ask how much to ore less the take for it if u ship the hole engine u take out.

ore u can look under the dealer list on this forum that sell parts and rebuild engine. Maby u can find somone close ther

 

I'll prolly start another post in the forum and ask if anyone can help me out that lives nearby. Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it and if by chance you come across someone who could help me out message me. Once again, thanks for your help

 

if you think one of the apex seals is toast, pull the plugs out and turn the key. if you get 3 even sounding whooshs from each rotor then your seals are most likely aright, if not, then time for a rebuild
