Well here is my dilemma. My rx7 has been setting for several years and would like to bring it back up to running condition. The motor that's in it now is a street ported rebuild that was never totally broken in due to some tuning issues. My question is how to go about getting the motor to turn over manually? Should I lube the motor before? Any help would be awesome.

Thanks

Some atf in the plug holes let it sit, rotate the next day a bit, repeat until it turns over and sounds like it has compression. Be advised that if/when it starts its gonna smoke quite a bit from the atf

 

thanks for the replie i had hear about doin that before. but was kinda sketchy about it. do you think it would be a bad idea to take the intake manifold off and pour some in there?? i also gotta figure out how to play with tis haltech but thats another help thread all together.. lol

thanks
trent

 

bump for more help!!!

 

I believe you can just remove the spark plugs and pour some in there.
