Default New to Rx-7's and need some help
I own an 87'
problem is when i accelerate the car dies.
we replaced the mass air flow censor and it wont stay open for some reason so we have it where it stays open at all times. but once the car gets to 2500 RPM it cuts out and dies... any suggestions?

You can't operate the window with switch? It's a simple rocker switch, get a contact cleaner and that should work if it's what I'm thinking. But, first disconnect switch wires.

The connection goes to fuse box @ driver side.

As to headlight adjustment, pop the headlights up and adjust screws located at the bottom center and inner side. If it does not maintain tension ck the tension spring.

Yeah, if you have a driverside window control, you should be able to regulate pass window.
