    The relay box full of water... a trick I picked up from a junkyard was putting the wet stuff in an oven on the "keep warm" setting ro around 150 degrees F. Let em sit and evap for a while, then disassemble and clean all connections. Some of the little components are getting harder to find, so just a way to try and save old parts on the fence.

    You need one of those pneumatic vacuum canisters like a mightyvac MV7300. I do coolant and power steering, brake fluid, all kinds of things with that thing. If you are creative you can vacuum fill cooling systems with it, and I use it to vacuum air out of steering systems too. Makes a huge difference especially with all the fluid work you are doing on multiple vehicles. Good going on the engine start! All the smoke is mostly all the fuel that was dumped in it when it wasnt sparking lol A full send will clear that mess up!

    • @Smeedia
      @Smeedia  11 месяцев назад +1

      I had the injectors disabled when cranking it over to find spark 🫡 a lot of the smoke was oil, Vaseline, and assy lube that I had in the rotor housing for lube. 😅
      I'll definitely look into one. It would.make life a hell of a lot easier for bleeding things 😅

  • @scotty305
    @scotty305 11 месяцев назад

    Congrats, I've had my RX7 for decades and haven't been inside the engine yet. I removed the first engine (coolant seals failure, around 75k miles) but went the easy route replacing with a compression-tested JDM pullout engine back when those were less of a crapshoot. Keep a very close eye on that oil thermostat, I don't trust the way the SakeBomb kit mounts it to the front cover. If you search rx7club you might find a few people who claim theirs have come loose and caused major oil pressure problems.

    • @Smeedia
      @Smeedia  11 месяцев назад +1

      I'm going to relocate the thermostat. It's already leaking, so thereno sense in keeping it there. And thank you! I'm absolutely excited to see this thing running 🥳
      I've always wanted one of these, but with the prices for a clean running FD. It's just absurd 😅 glad that I snagged this one to be able to understand how they work a bit better.
      This one originally suffered from coolant seal failure too at 85K miles 😅

    • @scotty305
      @scotty305 11 месяцев назад

      ​@@Smeedia today's prices are crazy, I would probably get a different car for $40k USD or whatever people are paying for ready-to-drive FDs with moderate mileage. Price for low-mileage collector ones are even crazier, but I'm not in that market in the first place.
      Be sure to set up all the engine protection things in your ECU: oil pressure protect, fuel pressure protect, lean O2 protect, and if there's a way to flash a big warning on the dash for crank signal errors I would do that too.
      I think I've added 20k miles to my car's second engine, so hopefully it's got a few more years left in it. I've got my ECU triggering the fans around 90 degrees C, so it's running cooler than what the first engine experienced. Stock ECU triggers them around 105 degC.

    That is one great car man good job!!! (Just one reminder, when it is hot you should Rev it to like 4-5 k rpm and then shut it off because it can get full o oil in the rotors and then won't start easy)
