WTB 86-88 RX-7 VAF - needed for BPT swap

Re: sudden heavy plug foul and idle trouble

I have a set of ground controls. I was extremely happy with the ride quality before the compter crapped out on me. You want these GroundControl Coilovers?

Re: Need Manifold ASAP !!!!
I have a complete exhaust manifold, T3 turbo setup that will bolt on to your setup. Includes all intake and exhaust parts you need. Muffler is old so may want a new one of those. Are you still looking for this?

Re: sudden heavy plug foul and idle trouble
So it turns out that the problem was coming from the plug in the mass air valve... it was filled with water, and shorting it out. Dried it out, and all the problems went away.
