NewBuyer-Safe mode issues?
Hello I was looking to buy a 94 rx7 and the owner said to me the following:
The car runs great when the ecu doesnt go into safe mod in which youll have to disconnect the battery for 5 minutes and then ur good again. The jap block could use a bpu computer but you dont have to. i only ran low boost and been meticulous with maintenace since the new engine.
94 for 10k has 51k on new block.
Also any gotchas I should watch out for when I got look at this car? Anything during the test drive to look out for? Is that safe mode a big problem?
Thanks in advance I hope to become apart of the club

It is not uncommon for the electric metering oil pump to fail on S5 FCs and FDs. When it fails, the ECU will default to limp mode/safe mode and seriously limit performance. The ECU can also be damaged when this happens, so replacing it may also be necessary.
