no start on fd..
Just bought an FD 94' and im only 18!!!!! Now ill be poor.... but heres the deal. Car runs on either but not on the gas. Gas is 3 years old, how do i get it out safely? Exhaust is not smoky white but vaper grey and just smells like gas. Has full exhaust, front mount and supporting mods. Ran before a 27 psi boost spike, had motor rebuild, ran getting off the trailer, now cant start. So how do i get the gas out?
It has fuel (old) and good spark.
Thanks, nooby fd owner

Just added gas and got a jump box to save the battery for a tad long, fired straight uo in less than 5 seconds, but i shut it off cause the add coolent buzzer is on even though its full..... but now its flooding out

That's because u shut it off without warming it up first so it flooded out. Just take the fuel pump fuse out and start the car for ten seconds then put the fuse back in and it should start

My 87 RX-7 flooded due to bad gas years ago.
A couple of ounces of transmission fluid in the combustion
chambers would displace the gas from the Apex seals.
I did that with 60k miles on the car and sold it with 150K and no issues.
And never rebuilt the engine.
