There is no fuse for the starter. It connects directly to the positive terminal of the battery via a long cable.

:/ okay let's put it this way, what amount of amp does my fc need for ignition?
or may be I'm not asking the right question... basically I need to replace a fuse, the little metal/glass type one.
thanks again

Go here: http://foxed.ca/foxed/index.php?page=rx7manual.

Download the factory service manual and the information is in the manual. You can also look on the covers of the two fuse boxes and it will tell you which fuse is which. There are many fuses in this car and we don't have any idea of which fuse you are referring to.

There are no glass fuses in the FC.

in this age of digital cameras, post a pic of this fuse that needs replacing. since u mentioned ignition, i'm guessing it wont start so ur guessing it's fuse related? or is it just not turning over with the starter? please explain what problems ur having so we don't have to guess and what, if anything, u have tried. and as mentioned, the service manual can help diagnose some problems.

If you are talking about your main fuse it is 100amp.
