Hey everyone!
Recent tune up and other parts but now I have an idling problem. The L1 and T1 plugs are clean and the other two are blackened. Is this timing? TPS is fine, new wires, etc....??????

 

How is the power? How does the motor sound? Please give a lot more detail.... otherwise everyone will just be guessing. Also have you pulled a plug on each rotor and listened for compression?

 

Compression seems fine. She sounds like she is running underwater. No power?!

 

Well... if the compression is actually OK... then it's not an apex seal. But if the car won't idle... and it sounds like horible... then it could be an apex seal. How does it sound when you are cranking it? Does it make the normal "Woo Woo Woo Woo" RX-7 sound? Or does it skip kinda?

 

She starts fine and idles smooth, just sounds underwater, as soon as she warms up it stalls. When I pulled the plugs the L1 &T1 were clean and others were black. I've been through most of the car recently checking all gadgets for emissions, air, fuel, ignition systems. Everything checks out ok. I must have missed something. All thats left are the water sensor thing and thermol sensor and thermostat. The last three things to check. Its driving me nuts. My gen. 1 NEVER died for this long and I blew the drive shaft right out of her once. These little things trip me up big time.

 

carbon builtup?

 

in the middle of the ATF trick.......I'll let you know if that did it.
