Not everyone knows everything about cars, which is why they ask. Although I do agree with you to an extent...

And to the original poster. At one point I was having problems with my idle on my 7, and did these tests to the AFM I sent you. It checked out at the time. Hopefully nothing has changed since.

Well checked out the resistance on both afm, and they seem to be around the same numbers. I guess I will try unflooding the car next. Man this really sucks!!!!

O.k so I checked the fuel pump to see if it made the "whirring" sound by bridging the terminals of the check connector with a jumper wire. And the whirring sound continued for a long time, meaning that the system is not pressurizing enoungh. So the next step would be checking the fuel pressure. But i found it a strange that when i took off the fuel feed hose there was no fuel what so ever..................

Pull the fuel line off the fuel filter. The aft line of the fuel filter. See if fuel drains out. It should for a few moments.
Put a hose on that line and the other end in a bucket. Jumper the fuel pump check connector and turn the key ON. See if fuel flows or not. Fuel flows? Then change the fuel filter, refit the lines to the filter and then remove the feed line from the filter at the engine. Jumper the fuel check connector and turn the key to ON for maybe two seconds. Fuel should flow.
Just FYI. In the past I've depressurized the fuel lines and then turned the pump on. The fuel rail gets fully pressurized in less than three-four seconds. No sense running the pump longer than that.
Also, it could be the fuel strainer on the END of the FUEL PUMP is clogged or VARNISHED over. Check it out.

I guess you missed my post in this thread where I responded to his question about how to test the AFM. Far more useful than anything you've "contributed" thus far in the thread.

Anyways, think what you will. I've helped a lot of people. God forbid I make a random post (albeit true...) once in a while.
Now... to help some more.

Go to advanced search, type in Hailers for the user, and "Start Fuel Map" under the terms.

Like the man said above, the pump will NOT run with the key to ON.
The jumper must be installed in the fuel pump check connector and the key to ON.
Or the key HELD to START.
OR the key to ON and the engine running.
The engine will start without the afm connected, but only briefly, IF fuel is available in the rails.
See the following jpg, it might be of interest. I'm not saying it will fix your problem, but it's sometning you should be aware of: https://www.rx7club.com/forum/attach...hmentid=150448
Frankly, I don't see where MYBABY wrote anything wrong and he isn't the type to pump up thread counts.
It seemed earlier on that you had caught on to the fact that with the key to ON, that the pump would not work. Guess I was wrong about that.
I'd still try the things I mentioned in my last post above this one. It can't hurt.
DON'T EVER BE A PARTS SWAPPER. Cost too much.
