Exclamation Rx7 keep Dying

Ok so last week i replaced my spark plugs and attempted to replace my AFM but dumb *** auto zone gave me the wrong one. so i put the old back on the day i did this the car ran just fine if not better wit the new NGK plugs, but the next morning it stared actin weird when i started it the **** light stayed on and the RPM meter didnt work this is a first. Not only that it died it wouldnt start again for awhile. Later that dat i tryed again this time it was fine drove it 2 the store everything good, on the way back i pulled up 2 a light n it just died n wouldnt start again i had 2 pop the clutch 2 start it and it died twice again b4 i got home the last time i got it 2 start by cranking it. IDK what the **** is going on any idea?

I can only provide suggestions... Maybe pulling codes will help you?

RPM gauge doesn't work because:

1. No signal from ignition coil or faulty wiring
2. Bad gauge

You did touch the ignition coil area so....
