When the beater gets hot.(After driving 20 miles in 90^ temp) engine will lose power/not accelerate.



Gages: 13+ volts on Alt

Mid range on temp

60+ on Oil Temp



New Leading and trailing plugs

Cleaned Secondary Injectors

Punched out cats and replacement pipe



Car starts and idles at 1200, I have not checked the TPS



Any thoughts????

1200 is a fast idle, I would check and adjust the TPS, as well as the idle mixture, the idle, and the timing, all when the car is hot, just tune it by feel and see how it runs and starts, then see how it starts when its cold.

I would check you cats and see if they are clogged and glowing red, if you haven't alread gutted them.





And this is off topic, but do you want to buy my exhaust that I build John, there is pictures of it in this section, and it has spintech mufflers.





And if you don't know who this is, I am Cory that lives in Aiken. With the multi colored beater GTU.





Ohhh yeah and what is wrong with the RX-7 forum, is it messed up, I can't got there

the how bad is it? is it sudden? or gradual? the only ive seen like this is on a gsl-se, it was fast cold and it would gradually get slow to the point where top speed was like 30-40 mph. it turned out to be an aftermarket fuel filter that has rusted internally and clogged itself

Comes on slowly as it gets hotter. If it sits 2 hours it is fine.



I am waiting on a care package from Mazdaformance with the filters and gaskets for a full bore tune-up. Along with the misc parts for the tranny swap

i think the fuel filter has a good chance of fixing it
