Exclamation Local Experts (mid TN) Turbo for your help..

Ok, I am in a bind. I find myself without a reliable car. i am driving the Miata (race prep) daily and it is killing me. I need my rx-7 up and running ASAP.

Here is the problem:

1991 Rx-7 with rebuilt motor (was running) 4 port engine using ported S5 N/A manifolds. It has the s5 T2 MAF, ecu, wiring harness. The car currently has 460cc primaries, and 550cc secondaries. The car cranks and cranks and cranks and cranks sometimes it will barely get running then won't start back. The car is flooded like crazy all the time. The car used to have a standalone but I tried putting it back to stock for driveability reasons. So much for that. Here is the deal, I have spark, fuel, but it still floods like crazy, the timing is dead on.

I am offering a really nice low mileage S5 Turbo and exhaust manifold if someone can come over and help get this thing running and tuned. I.E setting the TPS, getting it to run when I try to start it ect..... I need help and have nothing else to offer but a turbo and some other random parts....

Please help.

Trevor

I'd gladly come by and lend a hand but, I'm far from an expert! LOL

Speaking of being near by. There is a guy named Eli that lives down the road from you with a 87 GXL that he is converting to a TII. The TII motor is in and needs a new harness. I told him to holla at you to see if you wanted to help him out.
