New member an I need some assistance
So I'm trying to start my fd an it won't start it has bin sitting for about a year I changed the spark plugs the oil an put new battery some gas, it will crank over but it won't start, any suggetions????
Make sure it’s getting fuel (is fuel pump getting power and working?) and check for spark. If you have both fuel and spark but it won’t start check compression. Search for ways to do that.

Agreed, make sure she's getting fuel. Spray starting fluid in if you're not sure. Also pull one plug and lay it on the frame somewhere to ground it and double check to make sure it sparks when you crank the starter.

If it's getting fuel and spark try push starting it. RX7s have a tendency to foul spark plugs. If this is the problem a push from some buddy's will start it up it will probably run rough for a few seconds til the plugs clean up. I had to have a tow with a strap to start mine one time.It smoked like crazy for a while then smoothed right out.
