Hi everyone my names David

I just signed up not to long ago, and am a rx7 fan non the less. I currently own a 59k pretty much stock black interior 93 twin turbo rx7. I live in Oregon, and just wanted to say hi

 

Hello David!Welcome!

 

Thanks, just been spending a lot of time absorbing the forum info. Still trying to figure out the best way to lube a 5 year sitting engine seals before firing the engine up. Thinking of adding extra 2 quarts of oil, but kinda scared to do so.

 

Screw the 2 quarts of oil.If you attempt to start that thing with that much oil in it you would be asking for trouble.
I posted in your thread already(in the other section) and gave you an answer,that may help you.
good luck.

 

No No not start it with that much oil in it, just let it sit with that much oil before removing it, need to be flushed anyways, probably go with a synthetic oil one I've read good things about on here, and then try start it. If I do it that way I might just kick it over and wait again a few times and let it set again, so different parts of the rotor get the oil and get lubed. So ya, more oil when starting would be asking for big trouble I know that lol.

 

i know what you mean, I just bought an FC thats been sitting for a few months, I just bought some Walmart Super Tech 20w50 since I'm doing a oil pan gasket before i reach 1000miles. I may go with Amsoil 20w50

 

welcome David!

 

Welcome.

 

How'd the restart go?

 

The car as 49k miles I was wrong. Thanke to the forums the car was finally started last night. Smoked like crazy preping fir tge restart. Smoke cleared now, other than the pre process seems to put oil in my exhaused

 

System and now I have to probably taj re it appart and clean it out. Only smokes once the exhaust system gets hot like crazy. So I'm guessing it pushed the oil I put in the soak plus. Then manually turned the engine into the exhaust system. Which what it do with normal
