Need help on my second gen!

So i have a 88 rx7 that sat for a really long time. Got new spark plugs and got it running. I started driving it and noticed that you cant give it to much gas or it just bogs down. It wont let you go past like quarter throttle. I was told it was the secondary fuel injectors so i changed them and it still does this problem. I even changed the mass air flow sensor and it still does it. Does anyone know what it could be? Cause i just cant seem to figure it out.

Did you get the injectors cleaned before you replaced them? Witchhunter can clean them for 15 a piece. Give some more info on the car i.e. turbo, non turbo, mods etc.

ok drain the old fuel out of the gas tank cause gas does go bad if it sits for a LONG time. try and clean any dirt and rust in the tank too.buy a haynes manual also and clean the fuel sock cause they get dirty. this could be your problem, dirty old rotton fuel

give it a try.

and make sure you have a few gallons of fresh fuel to put back in.
good luck

I would say make sure the throttle plates are opening and closing properly, but it sounds like the injectors are clogged. I would send both the primaries and secondaries out to witchhunter and get them cleaned. Then go from there. Change the fuel filter, and the sock in the tank if you haven't already also.

Alright will do. The throttle plates are the three gold plates on the intake manifold right?
