i just purchased a 88 gxl that has a jdm turboII swaped into it. i have owned n/a second jens but this is my first turbo rx-7. the car ran last summer but hasn't ran since then. i got it to where it will start stumble and die. i've changed a coil that was bad, plugs wire ext little things. and cleaned everything out but i'm not sure what to do next and i havn't found ne forums that have the same problem.. have any ideas? thanks

before i replaced the coil the car didn't even want to start. also that car has a 3" racing beat exhaust, hks bov, 255 walbro fuel pump and some other little things. when it starts it just shakes and misses like the wires are on backwards.

its probably a vaccum leak, i'm having the same problem.

Here is a link that could be the problem.

i'm having trouble finding anything in that link... i'm limited on computer time so its hard to go through them all... does anyone have any other ideas of what to check or a trouble shooting link?

still looking for some more ideas if anyone would like to help... it seems like the car is getting way to much fuel but it really isn't flooding out when i try to start. it starts to flood then it trys to start. when i take the plugs out there soaked and theres even gas dripping out of the exhaust manifold when i'm trying to start it. is it possible for the timing to be pretty far out? its a jdm engine and it doesn't look like the timing was ever messed with the metal retainer is still on the bolt that you have to loosen when you adjust timing. Any ideas?? thanks again..

searched for a vaccuum leak today and there wasn't one that i could find.... the car is still doing that same thing it will start but it doesn't rev over prob 1100 once it starts and then it stumbles and dies... this weekend i'm going to go home and get my dvom and start going through checks in the service manual.. if anyone has any ideas feel free to let me know.. thanks
