ON Hi everyone!!
Good day my rotary brothers (and sisters).
I have recently acquired an 1987 FC as my very first car. It needs a bit of engine work, probably just new fuel injectors. It smells like it's being flooded or something...I'll check around and ask some mechanics I know for their opinions before acting. I look forward to learning much from you guys since I'm quite the noob. not super noob, but still noob :P

Thanks,



Varun

Haha same here. Just the way the engine is designed and how it works interests me a lot. The motion just seems so much more fluid than a piston engine.

Install a manual fuel pump power switch.

When the engine gets flooded, turn the pump off and cycle the engine a few seconds and flip the switch. Works every time.
