Everything was rotating fine until I shut it off in January 2011.. Once I took the engine apart I noticed one of the apex seals was jammed in the rotor and left some scarring on the housing. Goodtimes

Something's wrong with your headlights

a bit thin on details, but i see you're having fun as you build and that's a good thing.

Spaz!

Looking good man. Can't wait to see it next month. What wheels are those?

It's been awhile since I last posted on here. In the last 5 months I managed to complete the turbo swap in my 91 Fc, installed the fmic and all the piping. I got it to the point where it cranks over but does not start. I've been doing tons of reading on all of the rotary sites and still having no luck... I'm constantly tinkering with my 7 and I've replaced just about everything. New plugs & wires, injectors, ecu, all turbo sensors. Checked everything over and over again... I keep running into the same problem where the injectors just won't fire. The pump is working fine, fuel is filling the lines. I've got air pressure and spark, I can get it to run while spraying throttle/carb cleaner in the intake. But it will not start or run on its own. I've checked all of the fuses and grounds. Frustration is at full capacity whenever it comes to this project. I'm tired of spending more money on it and having no results, I'd like to start working on my 93 Fd again. Any help or input is greatly appreciated since I do all the work myself. Once again, thanks for stopping by and I'll try to upload more pics

when you have questions on the FD, feel free to post! I don't have much experience with FC, but FD i can help if it's not super hard issues with wiring

I need to start a build thread for my Fd which has been a project for the last 8 years. Sadly it has spent most of the time broken. It's in need of a newer engine. First car I've ever installed an engine in, the vacuum lines were quite the experience haha. I grew up around my father's automotive shop so I'm a bit of a natural at the mechanical stuff. Although, some of the electrical stuff stumps me which is probably the problem with my Fc.
