Default 85 gs won't start?
I bought an 85 rx7 a couple of months ago and I got it running and driving after twenty years of sitting. It ran beautifully. One day when I was pulling into my drive way, the clutch lost all pressure and stuck to the floor. I figured the clutch was just loose so I tighted it up, which helped. But it still sticks to the floor occasionally and ever since that day the car won't start. I found out it was leaking coolant in the engine bay and the cab whsere the pedals are. I can't pinpoint the leak. But while I was under the car looking for the leak, I changed the fuel filter. I cleaned the carb and put a battery I had in my mini in, it still won't start and the clutch still sticks to the floor. Anyone know what it could be?
