please help, im another newbie :p

Im lookin at buying an 87 non turbo rx7,the guy that has it doenst know rotary either, well it ran great until he brought it into school (Wyotech) and he did an Ac vac flush ( i think) after that the engine didnt start ever again. is it something majorlly wrong? im an auto mechanic student, they just dont teach rotary, so im kinda wondering what the problem could be. im not sure if it cranks or not. any suggestions?

Probably flooded. Please read the FAQ for FC sticky thread found at the top of this section. It covers many commonly asked questions such as the one you started this thread with.

well a flooded motor is generally caused either by low compression, or leaking injectors or a loose nut behind the wheel.

As far as unflooding, how to unflood a motor is again found in the FAQ for FC sticky thread found at the top of this, the 2nd gen RX-7 technical section
