Rx7 random shut off
So..I'm not sure where the issue is, but these are the syptoms. Car will start cold, with no issues. Has some trouble idling, but nothing too serious there. However, after warming up, she drives fine and all that, untill... randomly dieing. It sounds like she just running out of gas, or if there is no spark all of a sudden. The car has trouble then starting up. When cold the car will start right up, when it dies, or if you shut it off when warm, its really difficult to start it. Once the car starts, it runs great, as if there is no issue. Then randomly diying, (( if you drive it long enough)) or you turn the car off and leave it for a while..
I was talking to a guy at autozone, and he said, it sounded like the Ignition Control Module.. or perhaps a loose coil wire, though the loose coil wire would happen when cold too.. not just warm.
I'm new to the rotary's so I dont know really anything about em, besides how the engine spins. So any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

It could be a few things. This happened to my friend and my mom as well. Try replacing the spark plugs and see if you have an oil leak. I know my rx7 died at idle even after being warmed up when my dad didn't put the oil cap back on correctly.

What was thier issue, do you know? I dont believe it has an oil leak, but, the spark plugs and wires were replaced with NGK wires and plugs , not too long ago. Couple months ago in fact.
