RI I need some one to come out here

Hey I was wondering. I need some 1 to come out here and look at my car and try and fix it. I really cant figure out whats going on with it. My buddies just too busy and my cars just been sitting. I need someone who knows these cars inside and out and that would be willing to drive to RI. If you get it running and working 100% or even 90%... pretty much driveable but safe, I will throw you some cash. But only if you get it working. Or if you want to do it for free or trade parts for work. So just let me know on here or pm me. Thanks guys

How about you take your car to a rotary mechanic.

Buy a keg of Heini, and then post FREE BEERZ C0M3 ALL!!!! (Also lets fix meh car).
That will work.
Sort of sound like you just want to be a cheapass and get your car fixed for free.

likely, no one. someone has to pay for gas, especially since it is now ~$3+ per gallon these days....

even if i was only an hour away i would have a hard time doing it with that proposition even though i try to be kind and generous to those in need, but damn if i'm going to pay to go out of my way to help someone who doesn't seem to be enthusiastic to getting help. i can't even guarantee to get a car going at 90-100% with my whole shop full of rotary specific equipment, some cars take days of diagnostics on the 20+ year old electrical/fuel systems.

try the regional forums.

yeah whats wrong with the car in the first place, you have to put your self in our position. lets say someone did drive like 5 hours, they get there and the engine bay is empty and you got the keg on a stand. i'm sure everyone here would be more than happy to give advice if you post whats wrong.

You should link your previous thread to this one so those who peruse this thread, and can offer any help, will be able to do so.

Please set the main pulley to the proper yellow mark and then remove the CAS cover and take a clear and focused pic of the inside of the CAS.

Also, have you tried to adjust the settings offered to you via the RTEK to a base map setting as a place to start from and then make adjustments from that if needed.

theres the other thread.

CAS is fine its timed. I managed to do that. Ill try and take a pic when i have time. I just have no time for a project right now. I need something thats running or some one that can work on it for me. I dont have a garage so with it being like 30 out during the day makes it really hard and with me being in school full time i have very little free time. And i dont want to sell it becuase I've put so much time and $$ and blood into that car that, and i know its like almost there to be 100%.

This thread is a joke right?

Sell your car or take it to a mechanic. The rx7 community has no respect for someone who asks what you're asking.

i'd try to cut him some slack but this thread really should have never been made.

i just assume he's still in denial to what i have been telling him on the last thread.

They are about 40 minutes from you depending on where in RI you are. Good guys.

Or..

If your cars turbo, you could just sell it to me cheap and go get a Toyota. Im around Pawtucket.
