Gets High On Ether!!!
 

Hello, I am new to the rotary scene. I have an 87 base without turbo.
When I acquired it the engine was seized up, I was able to find a replacement from a wreaking yard. Once I got the Fuel System cleaned out from the ten year old gas, I was able to get it started with the help of some ether. Problem now is I can't get it started
WITHOUT the ether at all, even when it warmed up. Any ideas why this would be? Thanks in advance as this has been kicking my @$$ for almost a year now.

Sounds like your not getting any fuel from the tank.

If the car ran after being started w/ether and continued to run then perhaps the engine is flooded. If the car started w/ether but quickly died out then you need to test the compression.

Update:

Removed my remote starter button I have been using. Used the key to crank it over, and on the third revolution, it started.
ECM wasn't getting the start signal from the key

Gotta love 3rd party Aftermarket Stuff..
...followed by where does this go..and WTF is that for???

Makes me love: Buy stock.
