Okay, the fuel cutoff switch is for a few types of people:

A. People like me, who dont need it, but have it just in case. RX-7s like to flood.

B. People with bad floding problems (leaky injectors, bad seals, etc..) who cant afford to rebuild the motor/injectors. Its a great fix, and will keep you going for a while.


C. Well, could only think of 2 types....

keep in mind that if you have leaky injectors, shut the engine off by flipping the switch and letting the engine die from lack of fuel. that way there's no pressure in the fuel system to bleed out and cause it to flood when you go to start it up again the next morning.

RX7.com also sells a harness that helps. you'll have to call them. I think i have a spare one. just get your injectors cleaned and don't worry about that problem. It's a temp fix, to an illing problem. unless you have a haltech, and there's a couple other situations. But mostly that's it.
