This is her.9 years later we are back at it.hopefully she drives more then a mile.ive heard alot of what to do when a rotary has not ran in a while.but it will be a fun journey and will love if you guys help me through the tuff times lol.

The car looks to be in great shape and the wheels also look very nice on the car! Usually with fresh fuel and a clean and properly working fuel system, these cars will come right back to life. You will run into maintenance items and small repairs that need addressed, but once you're finished, the car will give many years of reliable service!

Hopefully she runs decent

Here we are day 1 (big clean up) trying to do fluids and and all that good stuff got plugs coming in later.any tips?lol

Coolant was mad dirty .going to pull the block plug below spark plugs and flush her out along with a new thermostat thinking of a new water pump and new radiato(koyo) but not sure if i will be able to use all the o.e brackets and shrouds.any thoughts ???

Lots of stuff to go over. A thread in the 2nd Gen Builds section or general discussion section would be a more appropriate place to answer those questions. This is just an intros section. We can get more in depth there.

Thus far though, you're doing all of the right things to get the car back on he road. To be brief, remember to use a Mazda thermostat. The Koyo radiator is a good choice and they do make direct replacement aluminum radiators for the FC.

Good idea.well thanks ill be moving g on fri. Here hope to hear from y’all.cheers !

I did find your thread in the new member tech section and answered some questions there. Very good idea to post in there as well!
