i got an 88 rx7 the first air flow meter went bad on it but i kept tring to start the car it would turn over then die within 2 seconds i put in atf in the bottom 2 holes and it finnaly started but then the rear bumper cought on fire so the car has been sitting outside for about 2 months i bought a new air flow meter did the whole unflooding procedure the car cranks really hard plenty of spark and sometimes it feels like it wants to turn over but it wont i dont know if compression starting will work or not but if there is anyone who lives near seattle and wants to come out and take a look and make some extra money that would be real cool thanks drftbrendan@yahoo.com

maybe a vacuum leak? if you get it started, have someone spray carb cleaner around the the intake and see if there is one.

I'm just guess. hope ya fix it. I aint no expert.
