What do I do next?gtmud 11-05-2009, 09:11 PM I just was "lucky" enough to pick up an 84 1.3 non turbo RX-7. Owner said it ran when he parked it, 3 years ago. Since then its been setting up, covered. I was wondering what I should do first, as this is the first rotary engine I have worked on. I figure I would have to drain the gas tank and replace the fuel pump & filter, clean out the lines. I thought of removing the plugs and putting a little marvel mystery oil in teh engine and turn it over by had first, to make sure its freed up, then use the starter. This is the fuel injected version, so is there anything else I might want to look at before I throw fire to the engine?
