TX Help in SA

Wanted to know if there was someone local in San Antonio, Tx that works on RX-7.. I'm having a problem with starting the car.. I can drive it and stop somewhere for about 30 min or so and go to start it and it will not start. I have to seat and wait for awhile. Also when coming to a stop I will push the clutch in the car to downshift and the car will stop. Any help would be great..

Probably flooding. Hot start problems are common, so search for "deflooding procedure." The other issue may be that the idle speed is set too low, or you have a vacuum leak that is dropping idle speed and making the engine stall.
