Car wont start
 

My friends rx-7 wont start on its own. If we try to start it in the driveway all we get is...

but when we push start it, it will start with no problem. Whats goin on? and what should I check?

Thanks

Sounds to me like it's flooding. Pull the EGI fuse, crank it over for a few seconds, stop, let it sit about 5 seconds, crank a couple more times. Replace fuse and try again (fuse is located on the drivers side strut tower under the hood)

Thats what i was thinking b/c i had one a long time ago but I couldnt remember what to pull so I had him pull the plugs and clean it and add atf and try again but we got the same thing. Ill try the fuse next time I see him. Any other ideas?

turn key to on floor the gas pedal to the ground and start to crank and slowly let off the gas should do it.. even says so in the owners manual .. just dont pump the gas a bunch of times while crankin

Has there been any recent modifications?

Rule #1: If any changes have been made, check those first.

sound like my, try putting some atf in the vacumm line the biggest one by the 13b injected, then give her a crank it'll smoke but i think she will start. have the car been sitting long?

you do not give it gas if u are trying to unflood it. Unflood not flood. 15 secs with no egi fuse than will start no problem

u can press the gas pedal on S5
S4 u need to take out the fuse
