problem with my 1990 RX-7 GLX
hey guys, im new here, and i was wondering if anyone can help me with my rx-7.
my cousin bought it for me, but were not sure what the problem is....the engine seems to "misfire" when it tries start, like, u hear the sound of the engine start, but it doesn't seem to catch on and start. it eventually does start after numerous tries, but my cousin took it to a local mechanic and he suggested doing a re-build of the engine. i was wondering if anyone knows if i might not need to rebuild it and if the problem could be something else thanks |
Swap the "L for the "X

oops, my fault...small typo
|
could be badly leaking fuel injectors. Pull the EGI fuse under the hood, if after pulling that it starts in 20-30 cranks, then you need to have your fuel injectors checked.
If it blows white smoke, you've lost a coolant seal and it needs rebuilt. If it still takes forever to start it can be low compression (and needs rebuilt). |
thanks mike, im gonna bring it to another mechanic and see what he can do about it
|
but check the timing, compression and all teh basic stuff before you jack the motor...
