Question Start problem rx7 fc n/a

Hi guys,

I have a problem since I bought the car, and the problem is that the car starts well in cold and in hot, but when I start it in cold and if I switch off the engine before 10 or 15 minutes, the car doesn't start again it tries but no. So for make it start I have to unplug all the spark plugs and quit the ENGINE COM fuse, crank it 3 or 4 times for 5 secs each and then it starts again. Also I feel that the car have like 80 hp and not 150hp.

Any idea???

Greetings!

Your engine is flooding. Rotaries are very well known for flooding due to cold shut down. I advise you to wire in a fuel pump cut switch. Saves alot of hassle with mucking with fuses
