So I might be trading my 240 coupe for a non running TII cool trade seeing that my 240 isn't running either. I joined these boards to be schooled on RX-7's because how am I going to learn with out asking questions or being hands on. Well first of all I've searched these boards for a couple days now and the question has been asked multiple times but different scenerios. I'm going to try to cut this story as short as possible. The owner now bought the car not running for a drift project. It wasn't running because the previous owner before him was racing a M3 on the freeway drove it home normally and shut the car off (He did have a turbo timer so I ruled the seized turbo out) the next day he went to start the car and the car didn't start. IT sat for about a year before the owner now picked it up. I was told the engine cranked before but didn't start. What could be the problemo with this? I've seen some of the other threads and since carbon lock is rare I ruled that out for now. The only thing that got my attention is a rolled apex seal. Are these easy to replace? (doesnt matter because it sgoing to get done anyways) any help would be nice I hope I didn't make myself look like an *** and answer my own questions but it's always good know from a second or third person. So I dont go ******* with **** that doesnt need to be fucked with.

Well thanks in advance for the help.

 

Rolled apex seal = rebuild, gotta take apart the engine (if that is the problem).

 

Thanks. IF that is in fact the problem i'm going to do it none the less. I need to get to know my motor some how. Sometimes I dont trust bringing my car into a shop or dealership if you catch my drift. I like to explore with my stuff just incase in the future it ***** up again.
