major problems
I have just gotten a 87 n/a rx7. The original motor had no compression nor would it even turn over. so i swaped the motor that i got from the kid i bought the car from, but it still wont even turn over. Ive pluged the wiring harnessin all correctly as well as the vacuum lines. i need some help on what it coild be.... the started has been tested good.
