Getting an 87TII w/a 89TII engine to stay on
Man im in need of some serious help. Heres the situation I have an 87TII with an 89TII engine. The swap was done by Rotary Performance in dallas. The car ran bad *** for about 3 months and then died. It then sat for about five years and then given to me. I own an 87NA so am kinda familiar with the rotary. The turbo has all kind of new parts and not to mention a damn near new engine. Well Ive been trying to get it started and it did start for like a whole 2 minutes but know i cant get it to stay on for more than a couple of seconds. Ive changed the fuel pump, filter, and lines and done the ATF treatment a couple of times. When the car did start a crap load of white smoke was all over the place. I really need some help getting the turbo started. oh also when it does start it revs up to 4k and then dies immediately.
