it started and then shut off, hmmm.



that would eliminate you knocking the AFM plug off, I say you have a flooded car.

yeah the car was flooded it runs fine now but it didn't fix the water leak, T think its leaking about the shaft in the pump so I going to buy a new pump and hope that works.

Make sure you put a new gasket on with rtv, and use a wire brush to clean the threads on a studs, they are bitch..

Didn't you just replace the water pump? Now it leaks and you are replacing it again?



I just found out that mine is bad while assembling my first rebuild; it leaked through the weep hole and it took a while to find where the drips were coming from.

I thought it was just a Gasket because who ever did work on the car before I bought it used a double gasket. so i took it off and replaced both the gaskets, tures out it was the pump after all.. the new one will be in on monday.. there arn't many RX-7 where I am form and no one stocks parts so its a bit of a pain.
