NEW MEMBER-HI EVERYBODY-car wont start
first just want to say hi to everybody!
i new to the forum but not to rx7.
this is my third rx7.
i have an 89 vert it wont start,
it crank but wont turn over, it seen to have fuel and sparks-i put new plugs and wires, starter good.
took it to local mechanic but he can not find what is causing it.
my guess is the computer or flooding.
please help!

yea the 2nd gen have a problem with the fuel computer. if you shut the car off with out letting it warm up to normal opperating temp the computer will flood the engine. there's a special procedure for unflooding. just search for "flooded engine" or something like that.

i had an 88 rx7 it did that to.one more problem might be leaky injectors. I put a toggle on the fuel pump and i didn't have any more problems. Before that i had to push start it and that sucked.I'm not saying thats the problem but you could look into it.
