I need some help. Some might know my story but i'll give a brief summary. I bought this car not to long ago and it had been sitting for 3 years without being started.



Ok, i've already bought the things that I know are wrong. ECU, fuel pump, plugs, and starter. I have already tried the atf trick and the car almost started but wouldn't. I'm not sure what else to do. I put half a tank of premium in there but there is still some bad fuel in there. When I crank it over, I can smell the bad fuel.



I talked to a couple of people and they said to just crank it over for a few days and try to get the bad fuel out. Is there anything else that I should try? Please help me! Thanks.

Drain the tank, there is a drain plug to do it. Pull the fuel pump and replace the suction sock. Fill with fresh gas. change the fuel filter, while its out turn on the pump to flush the lines. Install new filter

Thanks ill try that.



Is there anything else that I should try?

Well if you did the ATF trick, ur plugs are almost guarunteed shot and fouled, replace those.

Oh Man!!! You guys are the greatest!!!! I drained the old gas out and put new plugs in and after a few good turns, IT STARTED!!!!! Thank you guys sooooo much for the help! I'm so stoked 'cause this is the first rotary i've worked on and I got it to start!



THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683894.gif

F##k, I got here to late, lost another one to Drunkin Idiot!

It's cool dude. Maybe you could tell me how I can adjust the timing. Now that it's running, it runs a little rough and I think it may be the timing. Thanks.

correct me if im wrong,connect a timing light to the main leading plug wire, and they should be a little pin right above ur main pulley and a yellow mark on the main pulley, turn the crank angle sensor until those line up, make sure ur car is at normal operating temp before you do this.

O.K. I'll have to look tomorrow morning cause it's to dark to see anything. Where can I get a timing light? R they expensive?



Thanks again!

You can get a timing light at any auto parts store, Ive had one for a while, dont remember what it cost
