IL hacked up car need some help

ok you guys so the 89 fc i bought might not have been the best investment although i didnt pay **** for it everyone help me out so i can get this thing running on the streets. i am knowledgeable about cars and motors and i do know how to turn a wrench. so you can get technical if you have to.

most of the plugs the guy took off he "said" were for emissions. not to mention the kinked line that i believe is for coolant that doesnt have a clamp on it and also an iacv coolant hose that is wide open (at least i believe with the resid built up on it) and a port open that is clean on the other end along with some other ports that are clean and have nothing going to them right now. hmm. ***** really pissing me off. mainly because the guy said that all it needed was an oil line when it also needed spark plug wires, tighten the spark plugs up because they were about to fall out, and a maf, not to mention his hacked up autozoneblowme air filter that he had on there that flopped around like moby dicks **** when he jumps out of the water.

anyways now that im done ranting about how pissed off i am, if i can get some advice and pics ill post pics up as soon as i can with this rain being a **** out here.

thanks guys.

If you are looking for a local hand you can stop by the EVOLV-Chicago forum as well!

Judging by your description, pictures will really help a lot. You also may want to get a FSM and find the routing diagrams for coolant passages and emissions in order to fix everything. You can find an FSM in lots of places. Just google RX7 FSM.
