FD Won't Start...
FD Won't Start...
Drove just fine. Got to work turned it off... 9 hours later tried to start it and nothing. So far i changed the oil and oil filer again since then. Changed the plugs and wires(ngk 9 on trailer 7 on leading.) Just the rotors spin but nothing. Checked some fuses but all look good. Smell some fuel. Could it be fuel pump, starter, or fuses? Had a guy from azrx7.com check it out. What he noticed was the y pipe has the crack in it they usually get. He just figured it was flooded with oil because on last friday i put some lucas oil additive in which is like molases. All that is gone and the plugs were really bad and really old. Oh and boost sensor is on right and everything. Thanks for any and all your ideas!
PS. Forgot to mention the lights dim pretty bad when i try to start it. The radio and everything comes on just fine and all the lights. Battery?
EDIT* This guys problem sounds like mine (https://www.rx7club.com/general-rotary-tech-support-11/need-expert-advice-guru-masters-496479/)... just turns over and over but absolutly nothing... but on the first day it happened after work it would start for a second or two... I didnt change the ECU though.

Last time i used lucas oil stabilizer (on my friends blazer), the engine didnt want to start just like the problem you're having cause its sooo thick. I even let the truck run for 30 minutes the day i put it in. I guess it gets thick when cooled down. And if you live in a colder climate area, i would imagine its worse.
Might wanna do another oil change.

You were right... I went ahead and drained it put new oil in with zero additives new filter too just in case, new ngk plugs, new ngk wires, and new battery. Running like a champ!!! So freaking happy just got it started like 30 mins ago. I should of took pictures of the plugs they were so freakin bad haha!! I knew I should of changed the plugs and wires when i first got my hands on it 2 months ago.
