Hmmm...everything but a name to call you by other than "hey, you!" Great to hear another RX-7 has been saved from doom! Congratsi! I know what a pain it can be to get a car registered when the "owners" don't have all the paperwork.

Thanks for taking the time to register and welcome aboard RX-7 Club!

Hey there!
Some issues i ran into and some things id try and keep in mind are,

cutting out due to injectors needing to be cleaned
the engine rocking while idling, i fixed this by changing the idle back to stock settings.
Since it sat for so long keep in mind that all the fuel lines pump etc should deff be checked out. I made this mistake and ended up in a situation where it all needs to be replaced.

when i bought mine the transmission felt fine until i brought it home..

oil pressure and engine temperature always a good thing to look at. Id let it idle for a while and make sure it doesn't overheat on ya.

My engine flooded alot while starting until i replace my battery/spark plugs/wires/alternator ALL made a huge difference.

Im sure ill think of some other things i ran into. Ill keep you posted about what i encountered.

Glad to have another 7 saved !!!
cheers
