Welcome to nopistons!

 

hey, im new as well and i was thinking that maybe you can help me out a little bit if possible. i just recently acquired the repair manual for my RX-7. i noticed that all those fancy vacuum hoses with the plugs connected into them are listed under emissions control and i know that i don't have to pass emissions anymore. To make a long story short, do i still need them or can i just not care about them? I want to get my car in full working order before i start doing some serious stuff to it and if i could just skip over putting all those solenoids and check valves and all that stuff in correct specification it would make my life a lot easier. I also want good gas mileage cuz shes my daily driver so I was wondering if those being out of check would affect that. If you can answer my questions that would be great but if not thank you for your time.

 

well i assume it has the stock 12a, if so im sure theres a writeup here somewhere, search "rats nest removal" when i did mine it only cost like 10 bucks and took 30 mins or so, not sure that your gas milage would go up though more then likely not, i noticed by removing the rats nest and the air pump that my idle was a heck of a lot more stable and responsive. but thats just my experince so take it for what it is lol.

 

blandry, feel free to start a thread in the 1st gen section, you should get a bunch of answers there.

 

ok thanks guys for the help i'll try that and as soon as i get enough posts in i'll be starting up numerous threads as i do have way to many questions about how to make her run better.

 

You should be able to start new threads in any section except general discussion and the classifieds.

 

oh ok. i didn't know that thanks for telling me. I just thought i had to get 15 posts in to post anywhere besides the new members area. Now i can start on my quest for rotary knowledge lol.

 

another 12a fan! lol welcome to nopistons!
