87 fc n/a issues
So it's been a while since I put something up but I need help,I bought a fc a while back but it was neglected and didn't run but after replacing fuel pump and filter along with coils,wires,plugs and the CAS it started and I actually had it running pretty well but wasn't driving it due to lack of exhaust but then it died on me randomly and I can't get it to start again and I've deflooded it and it still won't start,could this be due to lack of back pressure maybe or is my timing messed up cause I never actually felt like I had the CAS right.

Have you done a compression test on each rotor? that will normally tell you if you have a stuck seal and that is what it sounds like. normally rotaries dont just die either they catastrophically die or a seal gets stuck and it dies while off. go ahead and do a compression test and lets see what numbers you get

Try disabling the fuel pump and use a bit of starter fluid sprayed into the air intake duct for one two two seconds and try to get it to fire up for a couple of seconds. The car might be very flooded and a simple deflooding might not do the trick. And a poorly set CAS will also prevent the car from starting, but if it started before then it should not prevent the car from starting again.

I did the deflood by removing the two lower spark plugs and disabling the fuel pump and turning it over a few times,It's at my friends shop so when I go over there ill mess with it and try to do the compression test.

I also feel as though something is wrong with my afm cause there is a terribly annoying alarm in the cabin and when I push the flap on the afm it stops.
