1989 rx7 turbo II
Just bought this car been sitting for 8 years. guy said it overheated and put it aside for years. will not start!!! im new to these cars and engines. where should i look>? and what steps should i take to get it running? thanks
|
Over heated & been sitting for 8 years, bad combo. Might be a good time for a rebuild or swap. Have you checked the basics (oil, coolant, plugs, filters, fuses & connections)? Does the motor turn over? Do you have any more information on the car?

Pulling the fuse they were most likely talking about the de-flooding. Here you go just click the link then the right year link from there.
procedure.http://rx7.com/techarticles.html Rotary engines do not like to be over heated. Look for leaks, coolant in the oil, check the water pump, look at the coolant, check the fan & radiator ect. Rebuilds can start around $1200 & go up depending on who does it & the level of build you want. |
the first things to start with on any engine is fuel, air and spark, without those you have a giant paper weight...
