'87 rx7 car's rpm unstable, sluggish,stalls
 
My 1987 mazda rx7, doesn't drive normally after I start it. The rpm fluctuates, the car loses power, stalls and even stops. When I attempt to restart it, sometimes it'll drive for a bit, then it acts up again. At times when it is running, I have the pedal to the floor and the car barely moves. Any answers? Thanks

Fuel filter most likely.
There is a sock on the pump in the tank and another main fuel filter on the frame rail below your feet under the driver's side.(rough area).You need to get under the car to change that.
the tank,you can access by pulling the back carpet up,there is an access to get to the sender/pump assembly on top of the tank.Good luck with the Screws.They are a pain.
