Im new and need some help
Well i just bought 3 rx7's none of them run, well one does but i have to pull start it. I cant figure out why? the fuel pump is working and has spark. it just turns over hits a coulple times while turning over but never starts. i can roll start it and it runs good at idle (sometimes a little lumpy) and good in reverse but it runs like crap if all the foward gears. if just falls on its face. i woud appreciate the help. thanks.

When doing the compression test, hold the release valve down. This way you can see numbers from all 3 rotor faces. If you don't hold the release valve down, the gauge will only read the highest psi. So your 50 psi compression could possibly be 0-50-0.
