Unhappy my fc won't start...
So here's the deal, first i changed the spark plugs to my 1987 na rx7 and accidently got the wires mixed up. but, i used logic and got them hooked up again right ( i think), so i took it for a spin. It ran great as it always does and parked it for the night. The next day i drove it to the store. about 1 hour later i tried to start it again and it flat out refused. it was turning over however. my dad thought it was out of gas but this was impossible because i put fuel in it the day before and the gague read that it was full.

It is not a battery problem. me and my dad checked the spark on both one tail and one lead coil. both sparked fine. so we figured it was a fuel problem. We changed the fuel pump with a 60 gph flow rate and a new fuel filter. It still wouldn't start. So Me and my dad took off all the black plastic air intake stuff and spreyed starting fluid directly into the rotar. It wouldn't even bark. ??

I don't get how we could sprey starting fluid into an engine that is making at least two sparks, and have it not even bark for a few seconds. Has anyone ever dealt with a problem like this? Or better yet, know the solution?
