Hey all

ive finally had time to work on my procjet FC more, and this is what my damage is up to now:
LED dash now installed
temporary fuel line fix
recharged optima


but all those little things are just small i want to get it started, so i was trying to turn it over tonight after i installed my fuel lines, so i let pressure build and then it just never starterd. but when i let the key off there was a clicking sound, it sort of sounded like it was coming from the BAC. but i just ignored that, and tried starteing it more but to no avail. so im thinking that the injectors are stuck open b/c when i took one of the trailing plugs out i saw that gas was pooled up on it and it looked to have a burn mrak on it as if it wanted to fire but couldnt

so if i replaced/rebuilt my injectors would it allow me to start or would it be more than that?

sounds flooded
/begin standard unflooding procedure

i already did the atf trick havent done the EGI fuse thing, but if my injectors are leaking wouldnt this make my car flood anyway?

OHHH YEAH I GOT A POP OUTTA IT, yeah i was turning it over and POP i was like man it fired once, so now, im gonna see if cleaning the spark plugs again will help

and i thought the unflooding procedure was second nature to us rotary owners

well ive only been a rotary owner for about 2 or so months , but yeah so far that little pop is all i have gotten outta my rotary. i know i have fuel i know i have spark and i know i have compresison, but how much of each is unknown to me because i do not have the specific equipment to test this stuff. and when i pull the plugs out there is fuel on the plugs, which sorta tells me that its not vaporized enough for it to ignite, am i right? and does this mean i have to get my injectors cleaned or is there somethng else i need to do besides pulling the EGI fuse a couple more times and turn it over for about 30-60 seconds and plug it back in and try again?


ok ok , its was about 5 minuts ago or something that i just post that, and i pulled the EGI fuse ran it for @45 seconds then i put the fuse back in, and still NO pops or anything, shold i put some more ATF in? or whats my next step in getitng my FC to run?

it took me 3 months to get my car running, i used starting fluid and it would run on just starting fluid, then i took of the exhaust, cause the cats were clogged, hmmm once i knew it would run i filled it with some newer gas, and kept turning it over, but i waqs using a jumper to ensure a nice battery power. ummm i basically just kept it running on the ether as i adjusted the tps to idle my car around 1,000 grand...after a few days my engine would start on command, then a week later i blew an apex seal
