Problems starting my 8 HELP !!
Hello
I have my Rx8 for about 6 months now I love this car never had a problem but last week last week I left my 8 in the garage because it was going snow . I left the car in the garage for about a week without turning it on I just let it sit there . I tried to turn the car on 2 days to take it for a spin but it didn't wanted to turn on , the ignition seems to cranks , I tried to deflood it but still nothing , I took the spark plugs out and they were soaked in fuel and they were black so I decided to put new ones . after I installed the New spark plugs the car still doesn't turns on ... PLEASEE HELP !!!

Not too sure. Back when I was rolling cylinders and not rotary, I had water in my plug wells. It caused the car to drive eraticly. It was a misfire. So I just vacuumed out water and swaped the plugs and wires. Problem solved. But not sure how you would deal with the fuel. But I suggest you seek attention soon. Or it could corrode some components.

Blinking CEL means misfires, which results in flooding.. Commonly an ignition problem. It is recommended that plugs, coils, & wires be changed every 30k miles.

oem coils and wires should be changed every 30,000 miles. The BHR ignition coils and wires will last the lifetime of your car and do not need to be changed. Plugs should be changed as needed, roughly every 15,000 miles or more of normal use.
