92 Rx7 FD starting problem
I admit Im the dumbest owner in this forum
two days ago, i did an oil change for my fd (regular oil and fitter, nothing special), drove a bit, and park it aside
yesterday, I moved my car to another parking spot due to some issue.(heres my stupid part) I started the car, it run. I moved it, and shut it off again (didnt even let it warm or whatsoever)
Today, I was gonna start the car and drive to somewhere, it wont start
I turn the key, it cranks, cranks, cranks but nothing close to starting
I press the gas pedal all the way to de-flood, I tried hook up to another car's battery to start, but all I get is "crank crank crank"
I didnt smell any gas, but I have half a tank in there
my guesses it might have to due with fuel line and pumping stuff
im not sure, any help?
the car didn't modded heavy, I only changed a few coolant parts, the car was fine 2 days ago.
thank you guys

you floooooooded it!!!.(gurgle).
If you just start up and then shut down the best thing to try to do before shutting off is Rev it up a bit then turn the key off while it is in higher revs.
Look up "Deflood".This little bit of info will be GOLD in your "tool Box" of knowledge on the car..trust me.
You do not know how many cars are actually sold because " it won''t start".

pull the plugs out , pull your EGI fuse to the fuel pump dry start (make sure to only let it crank a few sec or you will kill your starter)
it with the plugs out untill you stop seeing a pure fuel mist in your engine bay, spray the spark plugs off with brake cleaner , put the top two spark plugs in get a funnel and tube and place it down in your leading spark plug hole dump a tiny bit of oil in there, after this put the plugs back in, remove your elbow and plug back the fuse you took out, have a buddy spray some ethonal in the intake manifold and start her up
boom done and done

Dood, I did this and it fired up right off the bat! Thanks for the info Scotty!!
I only changed the plugs and did the fuse and dry start for a few seconds. Put the plugs back and *cha-ching*
