General Operation Maintenance of 3rd Gen.

Hi...I'm new to this forum and I just purchased a 1993 Mazda RX-7...If you have any helpful tips, things to avoid/look out for, or general info that I should know about the upkeep and operation of the rotary engine and car itself I'd appreciate any information I could get!

Thanks for your time

Logan

Do the safety/reliability mods first to get them out of the way. Aluminum Air Separator Tank (AST), ditch the precat and get a downpipe, always keep your air filter clean, frequent oil changes with good quality oil, change your fuel filter every 15,000 miles or so. Keep an eye on the spark plugs, if you really want to dig into it, re-do the vac lines in the rats nest and throught the engine bay with silicone ones. Get a water temp gauge and a boost gauge, thats all i can think of for now go to www.turborx7.com for more info, thats what i referenced when i was new to the game.

Sweet Jesus. There have been over half a million posts on this forum. Did you think that all of those posts must have been about Britney?
