Hey this is my first encounter with a 13b rotory engine .. i did an engine and transmission swap from one body to another both are 89 rx7's only the body i put the engine in is a convertible and my old one was a coupe ... i marked mostly everything and am almost postitive that everything is hooked up correctly besides one hose that i can not remember where to hook up at .. it is circled in the attached photos ... it will start after several tries and pumping the gas rapidly .. but it wont idle on its own and when i rev it up to about 3000 rpms it sounds like abnormal sparking internally in the engine .. i did not disassemble the engine at all just swaped it out .. please help me on the location of where these hook up.. thank you in advanced

That center piece looks like your thermo-wax injection. It injects a bright green lubricant/starting fluid sort of mixture through your upper intake manifold. Mazda added this feature for starting the car in sub-sero temperatures. I believe only some trims of rx7s had this which could explain why theres no place to connect this nozzle. That is unless you still have the Thermowax resovoir... (Its usually mounted to the passenger side close to the firewall).

I took mine out, just cap the end of that nozzle, or make a block off plate if you really want to.
Considering that you live in florida, there's really no point to having it.
