Hi I am new to Rotarys. My question is what should I look for in buying a FD and what to check out before buying?

Check Out the FAQ section. Check for idle quailty and rev it up to 4-5K also. If there is a boost gauge check for correct boost pattern. (10-8-10) (I think?)

boost pattern, compression, steady idle, make sure the gears go in easily, fuel smells
