start problem
car wont start..power at bats fine..power to pump fuel etc...havin checked the spark cos weve had real bad weather..but woulent say its that ..out of nowhere..cars parked on slight hill and next day and cold when tryin to start.. ive heard if the gen2 is left like this because of the baffels in the tank the fuel over the night runs to the back and leaves the pump not full submerged ..and it wont start.i find this hard to beleave as a mistake from the companys perspective that and theres half a tank.i also heard on rx7 guru "never run under 3/4 full tank..dont no why? any ideas car has 80k had it 3 mts it had a copple of bad /long starts the day before and pumps been makin noise sinec ive owned it ..

rotarys use oil to help cool down the internals. so if you dont check it every once in a while it will be low.
if you dont smell fuel than i bet your not getting any??
when mine wouldnt start it would be the spark plugs fould out.
do you hear the fuel pump come on when you turn the key to on? dont try to crank it just cut it on, you should hear a wine from the rear of the car?
if you do hear this than i bet you need spark plugs
