Big Problem
 

Hi all,
I went on holiday 3 weeks ago and got back yesterday, i went to start my rx last night and it wouldnt start!!!
When i attempt to start my rx it sounds fine and makes all the same noises as it would normally but it just wont start. I dont know a great deal about rx7's at the moment as i have only had mine for about 6 weeks now, any ideas on what the problem could be? All suggetions will be much appreciated, thanx.

so it cranks, but doesn't start?

What do you mean by same noises? It cranks over and the engine starts or does it try to crank over but doesn't start?

More descriptions please. Check your battery voltage as well. When I got mine after 1 month to ship, the battery was completely dead. Had to jump it to get it started and then it ran fine.

when i say same noises i mean when i would normally start the rx up, it makes the same noise it normally would e.g. when you start your car the noise of starting up, yeah its cranks over just doesnt start, when im turning the key its just cranking over as long as i hold the key in that position and doesnt die or any thing, theres no idication to a blown engine.
i think it might be electrics or maybe my alarm but dont know, any suggestions now?

p.s. sorry for late reply just finished work

Check your plugs and wires. A little rat may have naw'ed those wires ;)
It could be flooded? (Don't know how or why)

Dive into more ignition related issues.

Those are the items that roll off the top of my head.

Common things occur commonly so the most likely cause is that its flooded. Go through all the deflooding techniques (pull fuel pump relay and crank, pull plugs and crank, WD40 and crank, etc.) then check the spark (but not with a bunch of fuel vapors around!).

I reckon its just flooded,,,

I would start with your battery. Is it producing enough voltage when you start up? Start with that first and then try the other methods.

ehat was the cause... mine is doing this right now.
