big problem..the spark plugs got wet if u can cut the fuel pump out and start it ,after the spark plug dry, rx7 will start again..my one got a swhich for the fuel pump. if u can't ,,,change the spark plaugs.
streering hard? does the speed meter work?if doesn't work should be the meter cable broke,change one. my one liked that b4.

just push start it!!! or go in the engine bay on the drivers side shock tower there is a small fuse box. pull out the fuse that says INJ crank it a few times about 8 seconds intervals then go back to the engine bay conect the fuse again and the car should start. if that doesnt work then come back. if that doesnt work then come back.
