New to me 05
Just picked up a 05 RX8 with 71k miles. The owner said it has a problem with flooding and he was tired of dealing with it. It is in perfect physical condition and I got it for $1k. I tried doing the deflood procedure and cranked it over for 10 seconds. After that I pulled the key out and went in the house for a minute and when I returned a flashing light with a key was showing and it won't crank. I check the battery and it is only about 2 months old. Took it to get tested anyway. But I am kinda stumped at this point. Any ideas?

When the key was turned all of the dash lights came on and no click when the key was turned. I was able to correct it by removing the battery charger for a few minutes. It only seems to happen if I have the charger connected while I am turning it over. After removing the charger for a few minutes it goes back to normal. Still not running yet, but that is my next one to figure out

Yeah could be low compression, I have push started it once and it runs like a champ. But from the key not so much. The key is black without remote. I need to order a keyless remote for it
