The last time i turned on my car was in december it turned on no smoke every thing seemd fine. after that i did a tan black conversion and got a little side tracked, now 7 months later I put every thing back together and try to crank her up. I hear like a vroooom vrrom vroom and some times in between it sounds like it might turn on but it never happens. i had a dead battery wich i charged but after trying to start her for like 10min it started going click click when i turned the key and the dash lights would go off. So the real question here is did my engine crap out on me for lack of use? or is it flooded or something of that nature? any ways thanks alot guys u have been a big help, i look forward to the informative replys =p

 

Far from a rotary god, try the flood senario before you think about engine dyeing. Whats the stats on the engine and mods for car?

 

Is it just spinning over really easily? More than likely, it is flooded. Not a big deal. Take the plugs out, and with the gas pedal pushed to the floor, turn the engine over a few times. Then take another car to get some new plugs (or you can clean off your old ones) and some automatice transmission fluid. When you get back put the pedal to the meatal again and turn it over a few times. Come back in about 20 minutes and squirt a little ATF in the leading plug holes (I use the little bulb for ear cleaning). Turn the engine over a few times with the pedal to the metal again. Wait a second, and then start it normally. It will smoke, and you may have to "catch" it, but that will get it started.

 

you guys rock quick replys

Stats on the car get ready for a long list

yo P'cola FD its manual so i wouldnt need that auto trans fluid would I?


thanks

 

HA HA the ATF is for your engine not your tranny, read it over again. Unless I've gone cross-eyed. Gonna help get rid of carbon, but I'd never do that in a 3rd gen.

 

No you put it in the spark plug holes. It helps build up compression.
BTW where did you get that avatar? Just looking at those creatures makes me laugh.

 

:p my mistake


i ripped it from a movie of domo-kun do a google search they have a bunch of stuff on him

 

UPDATE....... I took out the plugs removed the relay and then tryed to start with my foot on the gas.... I heard the turning and i heard air comming out of the spark plug holes, but no gas came out??? is this normal? the spark plugs were wet tho..

 

Not much will come out. Just a little mist. Make sure to dry it out really well, andv then put a little ATF in there. It's best to put new plugs in, but ok to clean them. I use a glass bead, plug cleaner to clean mine.

 

alright im running a search now trying to find the order of the plugs since i realy didnt pay attention when i took them out =( . Also i went to lopez racing to get the new plugs and they gave me these ngk's wich look nothing like my old ones...all four are the same do i put these in a special way?

 

If you notice, 2 of the plugs will have a T and the other 2 will have an L printed on them. The ones with the T are the trailing and the ones with the L are the leading spark plugs. The trailing go on the top and te leadings, well....figure it out

 

Flybye hit it on the head. The plugs you took a picture of DO NOT go in a rotary.

 

erm wtf i got it started with those.

 

They will work, but you should not use them. I would put the old ones in once the car is all warmed up. After that you can do a few redline runs to clean them off.

 

somebody committed a sin and has mistaken your FD for a honda. . .. OFF WITH HIS HEAD!!!!!!!!!!! HAHA
