Default Newbie has a question
I have the oportunity to buy a 84 RX-7 with the 12-a engine(supposably replaced 10,000 miles ago. The only problem supposably is the fuel pump dont pump. Now my question is this. What kind of fuel pump does it have? inline or in the gastank?? Ive got the oportunity to buy it for $500. Does this sound like a decent deal? Oh and the inside is nice, and the body looks pretty good.

Most Likely in the tank, my 83 is electric, if you cant see it on the engine, its in the tank.

Tank=electric
Mechanical=engine

The fuel pump is not in the tank but it is under the car right in front of the tank with the fuel filter.
