    In Todays video we're diving deep into the Turbo 2 RX-7 FC's fuel system! This thing has been parked for over 14 years which means there are many things wrong with it! Today we're going to get one step closer to getting this legend back on the road by completely replacing its fuel system!

    Don't forget to replace your fuel pump wiring since FCs are notorious for the aged, stock fuel pump wires dropping your pump's input voltage way down. At the very least, make sure your pump is getting the full 12 volts it needs to run properly. (otherwise your engine may run lean and go boom)

    • @moritzherr
      @moritzherr  5 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks for the reminder man! :) Yes I was planning to check the connection and the well known voltage issue is excactly why I went for a upgraded fuel pump in the first place. So in case it drops below 13/12V it still has mire juice than the OEM pump👍

    hey that small hat looking thing on the primary rail is a fuel pulsation damper. its known to split and leak gas causing engine fires. i would suggest putting a banjo bolt in place of the damper to keep things safe

    • @moritzherr
      @moritzherr  5 месяцев назад

      Hey there, thanks for the reminder! :) I got the same comment already and I immeadiatly ordered a new FPD. Isn't putting a banjo bolt in kinda problematic? Because obviously there is no fuel damper anymore then.

    • @Gabefc3s
      @Gabefc3s 5 месяцев назад

      @@moritzherrso the fpd is there to absorb the changes in pressure from the opening and closing of the injectors. it was used as a way to smooth idle control in older cars. a good condition rubber fuel hose will absorb the pulses and with the adjustable fpr you should be fine. let me know if you have any more questions

    4:55 That's not glue, that's actually just rubber that goes under the pump, possibly to stop vibration and to hold it in place. Over time the fuel melts the rubber and turns it into that mess. The same thing happened to mine, I don't know why Mazda chose to make it rubber. OEM replacements come with new rubbers as well.
