Non-starter
Hi Guys
New on here so if my question is on the wrong page please let me know I am having a problem with my RX8 it starts when cold but if drive for 20 to 30 mins it won't start unless I leve it for about 20 mins any advise please. It's had new starter and plugs Thanks Brian |
Sounds typical of a low compression engine. I would recommend performing a proper compression test with a rotary compression tester before going any further. If you find it has good compression across all faces of each rotor then we can go from there. But a compression test is absolutely a first step before putting money into an engine that is potentially worn.
