Hey hows it going? So heres whats up, hopefully you can help. My Turbo was bad in my 13b 87 rx-7 so then i got another turbo and did the swap. the car ran fine even with the bad turbo. So after the new turbo was installed the car did not start anymore. I have no spark. I have changed the ignition coils and still nothing. the engine turns over fine it just wont start! any ideas?

Make sure your not flooded. A flooded car will appear to have no spark because the plugs get fouled.
