- I tried starting your without a choke and obviously didn't work, so my uncle heard all the commotion and came out and held the choke down on the carburetor to get her to fire up.

When it's running it sounds just like my 1985 Nissan Sentra carbureted motor while warming up
my choke works which is a bit different, but my pretty much fool proof method is, turn the key to on so the pump runs for about 3-5 seconds to build up some pressure, pump the gas pedal fully 4 times, (put the choke on, albiet you dont have that option) crank, and keep foot on the gas for about 5 seconds, done, let cvar warm up, ready to go once the idle drops the the choke letting off.
In the future (should you still have a non-functioning choke) simply keep your foot on the gas (accelerator) while the car warms up. My '85 Rx-7 (12a carbureted) has a disconnected choke, and once I get it to start (like you did, tapping the throttle until it starts) I just keep my foot on the pedal holding the engine at about 2k RPM, and it will warm up alright.
From watching your video, it looks like once you got the car started you let your foot off of the gas pedal, and allowed it to die out. The key is keeping your foot on the gas and maintaining ~2k rpm until the engine is warmed up. Obviously there is more to the choke setup than just holding the gas pedal down, but...when you don't have a second set of hands, and your choke is not connected or functioning properly, simply holding your foot on the gas pedal will allow the engine to warm up without stalling.
Good luck and keep that rotary spinning!!!
Thanks for the advice :), I’ve rigged up a choke wire now so she can start better and She’s been starting up every time now. Even when it was -20 degrees outside! And i plan on keeping these rotors spinning till they can’t anymore👌🏻
That RX7 need some fuel.
What is fueeeel!
Baby don't starvin me,
don't starvin me
Oh nooo!
😂
Omg please do more like this! Amazing!!
Props to your uncle for helping!
Definitely seemed like the more you pumped it, the more it wanted to crank over. My neighbor used to have one of these of the exact same year and when it was cold out, he had to pump it like crazy for it to start up.
well its carbureted
Nice car and good job with getting it started. Keep it up
i like how you talk about her)
After seeing this I'm so glad my daily RX-8 doesn't care about the cold... I couldn't imagine 🤯
Who daily’s an rx8 Lol
Like... a lot of rx8 owners?
I love the rx 8s don’t hate on em
sounds great
Tip: next time you do a cold start don’t do the throttle that much before starting. Just tap it 3-4 times once hold it for a few seconds and then do it again
Rotary life💯👍👍👍
the word daily and driver and mazda xD i laughed so hard ....OMG plz stop my gutzxD
Are you winning son?
Walks in on his son, choking his car.
Love the car man! Are you on Instagram? I subscribed
Somebody didnt tighten the set screw on the choke knob, you can still pull it out tho lol.
no starting?? Pls video cold start in winter?
Nice
It sure liked dying after a start. My Corvette does the same thing out of the blue (and on a good day, too) - simply up and dies 4-5 seconds after starting. Like a 2-year-old comment here says, opening the throttle up a bit solves the issue without fail.
Choke is an easy fix, you Had it started, give it more gas, hold it at 3,000 RPM when it' starts. CPL Jimmy
Brother in the future pump the gas before you turn the key its the same in all carbed cars and believe me its better than killing the battery and making your legs tired lol
Very true, I figured that out after awhile lol
@@cartinuousryan5341 right on man I'm diggin the car btw, my mom had an 82 when I was a little kid and ive always had a soft spot for them since then.
But anyways she looks great man and I'm sure she's fun as can be wish I could find one too now lol
zZWolfyZz yeah they are really cool cars, it’s a really fun car, surprisingly enough it’s a good riding car too so I definitely plan on taking it on long trips once it’s road worthy
@@cartinuousryan5341 that's awesome man I'm sure she'll in be ship shape in no time and those long cruises should be sweet just gotta make sure you get plenty of time in the twisties lol
zZWolfyZz yeah always fun to throw them into corners 🙂👌🏻
Just fix the choke?
I did once the winter months hit.
No choke cord?
Nope, i had to jerry rig one after this video
Why not put something flat over the carb to act as a choke
U need to fix the choke mate. I wasted 500 cash on batteries thinking maybe that’ll fix the answer. Nope . Either fix the choke or get somebody to hold 2 of the throttles cloesed with there hands . Handmade choke.
This is the carburetted 12A right? That's why u are talking about the choke I think 😂😂😂.......
Yes it’s the 12a.
A mowia ze polonez gorszy, a tu rex sie wyjebal na plecy ❤😂
That problem had nothing to do with RX7 that problem was a choke problem and what you call a cold start isn't even close to what my RX7 could start and Winnipeg I've had it start up before and probably my 33 - 35 Celsius maybe even - 40 (13b) it was also only 15 years old then.
just pump ya foot
Rip the starter
It surprisingly lasted a long time lol, the flood took the starter out.
It cold be a daily
at some point maybe.
@@cartinuousryan5341 ya missed the pun m8
DiscoRider realized it now 😂
Just fix the choke. It's not the cars fault.
I did once winter hit.
Rule Number 1: Repair the car before attempting to start.
How to flood your Rx7 101
Yeah I’m definitely more easy on the pedal now, I was just excited to drive it at 14 lol
@@cartinuousryan5341 damn you were 14 lol
so idont mean to be that guy but this is a Sa rx7
No disrespect but It was a 1984 Rx7 gsl FB.
@@cartinuousryan5341 oh i was unaware mb
the sa was the 70s
the fb was the 80s
Thats completely wrong way to start carburated car... First you don't pump the gas when you start it, you do it before smoothly. If it doesn't start when you try then you pump it a bit.
Bro your pumping the gas too much
What's wrong with that?? These rotarys don't flood like the current ones now
@@kennethrodriguez328 no they definitely do, more than 3 pumps usually flood them out lol
@@kennethrodriguez328 they flood like the bible
