Bac is unplugged. All the blockoffs have been done. I can barely get it to start. I got it running on the 550cc's for a while and it idled great, the 460cc's it will not stay running. ( I can pop start it all day long.
( BTW the person who throws an idea out there that fixes this will get $50 in thier paypal)

To get this straight, S4 N/A block, S5 wiring/manifolds?

It cranks like a normal rx-7 ready to start. It hiccups and then slowly starts to gain speed, when it hits about 300-400rpm via the starter speed it will start and run..

anytime mine hicups and sputters to a start slowly its flooded. what condition are the spark plugs and wires in? are the grounds all tightly bolted? have you tried jumpering it to another running car? since you say it starts easily by push starting it id say its getting too much fuel/flooding or the starter is dying. are you still using the T2 fuel pump? it may be sending too much fuel.

The car cranks normally, there is no problem with the starter. It cranks normally. I have jumped it off a running car with no change.
It is 100% flooded. I am positive of such. The grounds are all bolted tightly.
The starter works great though, so good it spins the engine up to 500rpm at times.. Cranks great.
Def getting too much fuel or not enough spark... Or both. I hooked up the JAcobs to it Sunday without any improvement...

Well the car ran before I put it back to stock. So I think the bad injector thing is probably out the window.... The other injectors I put in there came out of a running car too...

put a fuel pump cut on it, shut of the pump. start the engine turning over, it will fire then turn the pump back on and there you go.
stock management puts to much fuel in the curve for a ported motor, so it just floods, cutting the pump is a bandade.

Well I was driving the car around with the standalone and just filled it up about 30-40 miles prior to the teardown. The gas is good.
Well the Spark plug wires are hooked up what I think it right,...
L1 on the bottom of the front rotor
T1 on the top of the front rotor
L2 on the bottom of the rear rotor
T2 ont he top of the rear rotor

There is very little info out there regarding this perticular car.
