Re: please help 86 rx7

First off Dick, is the whole reason you posted in form just to bash on someone? What a waste of time and life. Also you’re busting on grammar and you didn’t capitalize, punctuate or even bother with a sentence.

Ok now to the real issue, I have a 88 rx7 na and I had similar problems with mine. The previous owner lost interest and it sat for a long time before I bought it. It had trouble idling and if you didn’t baby sit it during the warm up it would stall. Also while engine breaking it would kick and sputter if you didn’t keep you foot resting on the throttle. I ran a few bottles of injector cleaner through it and replaced the spark plugs. That cleared most of the problem up but it still misbehaved erratically until I replaced the vacuum hoses and installed a grounding kit. Good luck!
