ok im a newb but i need some help

first of all im newb to rotaries so i need some help with terminology like s5 tii and other stuff like that. second i have problems with my 88 convertible. it seems like the car is flooding a lot. it usually takes some effort to get it started and if i dont make it on the first try or so it just doesnt want to start of a few hrs. also i think the timming is off what is the procedure for setting the timming? also the car seems a lil low on power, maybe this is just because of its nearly 400lb handycap on the coupesbut still i think it needs more than that. i really dont want to put too much into the na engine because im told that a turbo II swap is a very good idea but id like it to run good untill i do that. any help would be great.

Do a 60k tuneup if you haven't. Check spark plugs for fouling. Your injectors might be leaky.

From the FAQ stickied at top ( https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/frequently-asked-questions-2nd-generation-rx-7-faq-fc-494667/ )

I don't want to buy a shop manual for my car, is there a place where I can still find out the information from one
Shop manuals for both series can be found on-line at:
http://www.cochran-racing.com/FSM/index.html
http://208.62.166.66:82/guest/shop_manuals/
or (86-88)
http://www.teamfc3s.org/main/factor...nual/1986_1988/
and (89-91)
http://www.teamfc3s.org/main/factor...nual/1989_1991/

Should have info on injectors there. From what I understand, injectors are fairly cheap to get cleaned and blueprinted.

Go to search, advanced, search "clean injectors" in title only.
