vitamincj Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Good luck with it. Let me know if you need help with anything. The 86's had some unique fuel system "quirks". The Injector clips need replaced if they haven't been already. That was an issue with all the years. It should be easy to check for fuel and spark. Pull the over the valve cover pipe and have someone crank it, if the injectors spray then you have fuel. Checking for spark it pretty obvious. Sorry if you have covered all this already. I haven't had much sleep the last couple of days. I just got back from the National StarQuest Meet today and saw your thread. Glad to see another StarQuest around. ;-) CJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drained the tank today and it was nasty. I believe it is a fuel issue. Are you on StarQuestclub.com? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitamincj Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Yes, I am vitamincj on starquestclub.com and all the other starquest sites. I can't wait to see the car. Let me know if you go out Friday and I will try to make it too. CJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thekingofcrunk17 Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Wow, thats pretty clean... I'd buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitamincj Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Also, I have injectors that you could temporarily use to test with. I believe 86's fired in alternating order and were both 850cc's or something like that. The one's I have are 650cc and 1050cc I believe.

Patrick Posted August 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 I *heard* that the mitsu fuel systems were finicky when it came to voltage. Now, even keeping it on jumper cables isn't enough. This is kind of far fetched, but I'm going to clean them myself once I have some damn time, blow out anything in the injector with spray cleaner/air compressor, and then clean them in techron injector cleaner. And my new clips are coming in too. I don't really understand why that would matter in the functionality of the injectors except for no power getting to them because they were loose. But we'll see. I need to get the RX-7 running properly before I do anything. Once I do the hackjob repair and cleaning, I'll let you know. thank you!!

Mr. Jones Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 A few know about mine, but I am still keeping the cards close So the ever awesome 2.3T RX7 has lost its steam now? You just swore that it was going to get finished this spring, and you'd show all us negative bastards. Its probably best you keep your plans a secret in all honestly.

Patrick Posted October 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 UPDATE: It runs. New dizzy and GO! It needs a brake line now. Plus, the exhaust gasket was this wtf material...like sheet metal. The Manifold and turbo are off now, just gotta put them back on and I'm good for a time. Hopefully.

twistedfocus1647545489 Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Every time I see a Starion (which isn't often) it makes me think of Jackie Chan and that huge guy driving into a lake in Cannonball Run... I always liked the styling of those cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
