FC gurus?
I dont know if anyone has experianced this problem but my car origanally ran rough. i know it has a coolents seal leak so i figured this would account for the rough running as well as the hard starting it tends to flood easy. but i said what the hell, i will see if its the coils since the plugs and wires are new and i found some cheap coils. it took me about 10 mins and i tried starting the car, and notheing. no spark i tried compression starting it and it was compleately dead. so i came to the conclusion that those where bad coils and i had good ones before. so i rplaced the previous ones, and the car still wont start. so now the car ran before, i had to f*** with it and now it wont start. all the connectors are fit properly and im now getting spark to the plugs as i have tested that. so what else could have happened?
Have you tried unflooding the motor? All that cranking, with no starting could SERIOUSLY flood the motor.
Remove the lower spark-plugs, pull the underhood EGI COMP fuse then "crank" the motor over for about 10 seconds at a time, until the smoke clears. Hold down the gas-pedal while you're doing this for maximum "fuel clearing".

previously to the event i would have some kind of bump suggesting ignition was taking place. during this i had cleaned the plugs and cranked it over with the plugs out to dispell any gas. after sitting overnight now it doesnt sound like it wants to start at all. i am familier with the unflooding procedure and i dont think its flooded. but it doesnt hurt to try again.
are u also familiar with the fact that rotarys dont unflood them selves when they sit? its not the gas on the plugs that makes it not start,
when it gets flooded hardcore the gas washes the oil off the housing cuasing low compression conditions
try squiritng a lil bit of oil into the spark plug holes , and then crank it over with no plugs with the egi fuses pullled a few times ... thren try to start it

Time for a rebuild.
Early warning signs of worn out apex seals (flooding) Your prob on rough starting there is a lil green connecter on back side by alternator make sure that is connected or it will cause your car to have ruff starts especially with the cold weather. My vert did the same thing (ruff starts)
