Alright, I need some help to help a Mate !! We're working on his 3rd gen atm, the water pump went so we replaced that, no probs there, exept a stud snapped off so we had to heat it (fine blow torch) to loosen it.. sectioning off all the surrounding components so as not to heat them up or damage them, well since then we have lost a spark and I can't see anything dodgy looking or out of place, I tested the plug that feeds the coils and I get a 12 volt reading of one pin, i gather that is correct.. ;-) It doesn't look like it has the same timing unit as the 2nd gen so I'm stumped as to how to find the loss of spark problem btw, there is only 4 3rd gen Rx7's on this little island and like anyone has a manual

Any help is soooo much appreciated
Cheers

try checking the fuel relay if it is not working or pulled You will not get spark.

Ok, I know the Series 2 Turbo 2 inside out but not the 3rd Gen.. Where is the fuel relay ?

Things that are/not working, I have Fuel i'm sure cos there is a strong smell of fuel at the exhaust which tells me that the timing sensors are working at least for it to fuel, I have checked the relevant lume for wire breakage but no success there, the coils have a +12V Supply but are not sparking so I'd guess that the Timing unit is sending the 'trigger' but it isn't reaching the coils !! that's my theory of 24 hours with a 3rd gen.. Any help Soo much appreciated..
