new rx7 owner

ACE · 11-04-2012, 03:24 PM

Hello, I just purchased a 1985 rx7 gs with low miles(90k). I know very little about these cars, except I've always like them and it's fun to drive. If any of you have any advice, do or don'ts please feel free to let me know. Even if it is real basic.

thanks, ACE (mark)

Keep the oil changed regularly at 3000 mi., flush and refill the coolant no less than every two years, don't over-rev it, and never, ever overheat it. If you keep up on the basic maintenance they last a long time.
