Alright well i kept my Rx7 3rd gen 1994 up on jacks cause the oil cooler and radiator resivour was damaged. i fixed both the problems and once i started to reverse my car it wouldnt go. so i put it into drive and it wouldnt go forward. i revved the engine and it hardly moved.







please, all those RX-7 veterans, help me with this problem.

i really love my rx7.

frozen brakes i'd venture to guess.



jack it up and see if the wheels move freely by hand.

does the engine rev freely with it in gear and clutch pedal released? If so.... clutch is slipping or something in the tranny or diff has **** the bed.



If it doesn't rev freely ( boggs the engine down when you let out on the clutch) your brakes are frozen to the rotors.
