No it is not normal.

Please read the Frequently Asked Questions on the 2nd Generation RX-7 - FAQ for FC sticky thread before posting. Many of the commonly asked questions are covered there. If you think it is normal, you have not read the FAQ for FC sticky thread and belong in the remedial FC owners club.

I think he means the older members that fail to read the FAQ for FC or search or the like, and ask a question that has been covered 1 billion times already.

It's probably your fuel sock. I didn't want to believe it when it was happening on my car, but it was...and the sock is only $5.00. Replace it.
