Help with a no start 13brew
Im helping a buddy with his car and I need some info from you guys. The car is a 40k PFsupercars rebuilt. It has good compression, rats nest lines all replaced, it has fuel, and spark. Car will still not start. The only thing i can think of is a bad crank sensor.

You might need to be a little more specific than that.
Without knowing a lot more about what's going on, I've heard of many people trying to "push start" their rx7, since sometimes it sucks to get them started after repeated flooding.

It could be tons of things, try searching, I just fixed my no-start problem (bad circuit relay) searching through different topics, there's overwhelming and tons of very recent threads on every possible test and solution

This car was running perfect and then out of no where it died. I cranks right now and it sounds like it almost wants to start, but then it floods. This Im gonna check next is the map and crank sensors. Im leaning towards a bad map sensor.

Well that pretty much impossible since the owner said he drove it up and down the street and then it shut off and it would not start. All he troubleshoot was the injectors and those are fine.

i'm betting it has lower compression than you think. do a compression test on it and get some hard figures.
sounds like it's fuel fouled if you are in fact getting all of the above. why is it fuel fouling? because it possibly has a tossed seal, if it happened while he was driving.
