No start
Long story. I've owned and worked on rotaries for the last 20 years. I've never had to send one out except tuning but I think I may have to or sell it. My wife got diagnosed with 2 different types of cancer and a thyroid issue and I can't spend any time on my project. It's a 93 rx7 I got as a completely bare shell. I've installed the rear end, trans, engine, all harnesses, etc. Has a Walbro 440 fuel pump, Xcessive limited, cj motorsports fuel system with Fic 1000cc primary and 2000cc secondaries, Xcessive oil pan, aem smart coils (still in waste spark) with sakebomb harness. I can't get the damn thing to start, at first it was a broken signal wire for leading coils between ecu and sakebomb harness. Now I have no idea. I've got fuel pressure, a solid spark which I can manually trigger with the adaptronic pnp ecu and when cranking. Ive replaced the plugs, and just cant figure it out. I need it to move but I need to tend to my wife and can't work on it very often or for very long. has solid compression, I need help

post this in the adaptronic section.
I can try to help for now, but i'm not very experienced with adaptronic.
connect your adaptronic to your computer and look at the engine data. do you have an RPM signal? i'm going to go ahead and assume you have an ignition or ign settings issue
a "no start" is usually pretty easy to figure out of you have an EMS and a laptop...
it would be best if you could upload a video of the laptop showing the adaptronic software while cranking it.

Make sure the coil harness is grounded directly to the battery with robust grounding wires. Also it may seem like a small thing but if you aren't already, apply dielectric grease to the inner area of the wire boot where it contacts the ceramic on the plugs. In my experience, this ignition system is awesome---- BUT you have to make sure it's working properly.

Secondly I'll post my reply in the adaptronic section thread you started so we can pick up from there.
