Replacing Rotor Seals in a 1990 RX-7 GTU
A few mechanics have told me my engine compression is low. The car runs fine once it is driven. However, with the AC on and the Blower fan on, it will stall when coming to a stop. I have set the idle at 1200 RPMs but it still stalls when stopping. Now when I come to a stop, I turn off the blower fan and AC. Does anyone know who rebuilds the engine or can replace the rotor seals?
The car is Black and Black with 75,000 original miles. It is all original, including the paint, ad the interior is excellent condition.

Welcome to the board.
Have you actually had someone do a compression test on the engine?
Are you having trouble starting the engine? Any increased fuel consumption? Loss of power? Stalling when the A/C is on, by itself, is not conclusive to condemn the engine. I'm not saying the engine is not dying, but I am saying you should probably have more evidence of it. Start with an actual test, and go from there.
