Letting Your RX-7 Sit for a long period of time.
Since most of us, atleast myself, dont use the RX-7 as a daily driver.
What is the longest you have let your RX-7 sit without turning it on?
Secondly, in general with any car. How long should you let a car sit idle without turning it on?

Winter time i would do about a full week, sometimes 10 days without starting.
But i keep insurance on it because lately we didnt get any bad winters and there would be some days that are nice so i would take the car out.
Matter of fact saturday is supposed to be nice, ill probably take it out that day.
That would make it, 1 week since start, and 2 weeks since actual driving.

most engines i pull apart that have just simple coolant seal failures have calcium deposits from hard water(tap water) built up inside, coolant also coagulates if it is not circulated for periods of time and then becomes acidic and starts to attack aluminum surfaces. i always recommend changing the coolant and using distilled water/coolant once a year, too bad no one ever does.
the cooling system is the most important system on a rotary, it is also the most neglected.
