Got a couple of questions to ask...first i just got my rx-7 and im having so problems. my takes about 5 seconds to actually turn over and sometimes it stalls at idle. (plugs were just replaced) And Second....is it normal for the engine to sometimes stay spinning when i have already turned the car off? all advice is appreciated. thank you

Maybe he means turbo?



Or he's hearing fans or something/

The rotors SHOULD NOT be spining when you turn the car off. I've never heard anyone say that before, I guess there's a first time for everything.
