Exclamation Magneto?


So, I was looking at a blue second gen rx7. The owner said it needs a new magneto and it should run. Where would I even buy one of those?

I didn't even know rx7's had magneto's to begin with.

No magneto in a 2nd gen. Where the distributor "would go" is what is called a crank angle sensor. I have an extra one you can have. Most likely isnt the problem. Where are you located?

Hm, if all it needs is a CAS to fix, then why doesn't he fix it?
