Tries to die after revving.

Hi, I am newer to the rotary community and I just this morning finished putting a pacesetter header on my na 91. After revving it stalls. Anybody know what could be the issue? The header is the only modification it has done to it everything else is original. But it also sat for ten years prior to me buying it.

First, was it running well after it sat and before you put the header on? If not, then it could be a LOT of issues. Start here: http://www.aaroncake.net/rx-7/unstore.htm

Or, did it stop working after the header install?

If so, what did you disconnect/move while installing the header? What did you do with the ACV and associated vacuum lines/air lines?

Installing a header essentially disables the entire emissions system so you will need to deal with all that equipment no longer in use.

It ran perfect before the header swap except on occasion something would short when I hit a bump and the fuel pump fuse would blow. I put everything back the way I found it. Thank you for a starting point!

I have been daily driving it for a few months. I've driven roughly 1300 miles since I bought it.
