Remove plugs and egi fuse. Turn over for 10 seconds. Clean plugs best you can with rag, and heat plugs with a lighter. Put them in. Push the car while in neutral, hop in real quick, push in clutch, put in gear, let out clutch and crank the starter at same exact time. If pop that doesn't start it, I doubt anything will start it.

You have fuel pump wired to a switch, it is a big time saver.

the best way to jump start a super flooded rotary is to find a nice big hill, turn the key on and give it a push.

it still may not start but it will be a relief.

so i removed the lower intake manifold and coolant drained out of it. the o-ring seal was warped and the actual gasket was definitely bad. once the gasket comes in then I will put it all back together and see what happens
