added: this might suck i just thought of it maybe your wiring might be fried?

Man, I feel really stupid, because my dad and his buddy found the problem. I followed a write-up to remove emissions, and capped something off when I wasn't supposed to. They hooked the vacuum lines to it, and they said it ran. They drove it for a lil, and to get some gas...My dad said it ran great, felt good, but when they got back, they tried to start it again, and it wouldn't start. Tried over and over again, but nothing. None of the plugs are wet, it's not flooding, and I can't smell gas under the engine bay like before, so I'm thinking it's not getting fuel. I have an upgraded (Walbro) pump, but like I said, it ran fine for a lil before it died. Any insight?

Look at this video, it is a famous battle between the Fastest 3/4 chassis cars in the world. La Atrevida has just conceded her crown to La Anais. With a tiresmoking 7.40 in the 1/4 mile. Puerto Rico does not mess around when it comes to rotaries. They will put a rotary engine in your go kart and ask you if you want to go peripherial or turbo... Check out the video. http://media.putfile.com/FirstRound

I have seen this car on the race track. It is a very fast and well built race car. Since Jerry and others like the RX3's, I thought I would show you guys here.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=4588801392

If it sells for that $1500 price, someone is going to get a great deal.

A friend of mine is selling a 87 (I think he said) NA convertible RX7. Runs great (part of why he is selling it), in good shape mechanically, but needs some cosmetics (including replaing the top), but looks pretty good overall (with top down). Has the BBS style alloys, etc. PM me if you want his phone number. He wants $1800 for the car.
