HELP! Only firing on one rotor

[PERKINT]

Hi,

Not sure, but I think it\'s gone to WGT. It got taken away yesterday, going to a place with a name made up of three letters, somewhere in Northwich.

Sound familiar?

So long as it comes back running OK, I don\'t really care

Would like to know what they\'re like with the standard ECU, as mine is less than enthusiastic to rev up from real low revs. I know there\'s gonna be little torque there at the best of times (at least reputedly), but I expected it to be free and eager revving, even from low revs.

http://www.wgtautodevelopments.co.uk/  who from what i\'ve read are good & i\'m lead to believe pretty handy with ECU\'s as well if that is the source of your problem. At least from what i\'ve heard/red although my memory loss is pretty........ er what was i saying lol

& similarly have no real experiance but it\'s not stopped me joining in so far so i believe RX7\'s should be very eager to rev & pull so yers does sound a tad unusuall..... but should all go well now we can but hope

A very old thread but what was the problem in the end and how did ya sort it?

[iaint]

I didn\'t notice how old the thread was until I saw Si reccomending Hurley to the bloke... lol.

Actually it peeves me a bit that people come on here, ( non member especially ) , get a whole load of help, then they cant even be bothered to post up what the problem and the resolution was, so we can all benefit.

If I remember rightly Si was singificantly unimpressed by the level of service they provided to him, largely their attitude.  A search would probably find his rant...  And so it did: here

When I spoke to them about a rebuild I did find their attitude pretty off-hand in comparison to the other tuners I contacted.

this came up in the search as mine has just had a similar problem.
Its the first time i\'ve used mi car for 2months since buying it.
It was running all fine for the 2 hours b4 this problem happened i just hope this doesn\'t mean a rebuild

[deanflowers]

hurley didnt want to put mine right when it was playing up, bought mine with an apparently brand new engine 3,000 miles old, had a warranty etc but they didnt want to know wasnt prepared to take it back for them to service it and took it elsewhere, After 13,000 miles my compression was 4.5 front and back, they also used the wrong kind of vac lines and a normal hose to the brake servo from the inlet manifold.

I now have my engine in pieces so will be able to tell if it is as suspected a poor rebuild, it cost the garage who paid for the work to be done £4000 which sounds like a bargain! NOT

I would not recomend them aparently if anything is perished they dont replace it unless you specifically ask them to either. :eek

i too found it odd that si was recomending them, i almost spat my tea across the PC.

They are a bunch of cowboys with poor after sale service IMHO

Hey - calm down. Gimme chance. I never posted the resolution in here because it got mentioned on some of the other threads or whilst at meets and no one asked in here, till now!

The engine needed its rebuild. Tips had gone. Was some time around Feb of the next year, before I got it back!

Oh and I was a member, but let it lapse now, as I think the RX is going to have to go. Been brilliant, but was a little extreme for use as an only car, but now I need something with at least a token more practicality, and cheaper to run

[John Yorke]

Any chance of letting us know who sorted it for you and what the problem was?

[PERKINT]

Hi,
Yeah - as per previous messages, it went to WGT. Not really sure of details as the seller sorted it (I essentially refused to accept it until resolved). The warranty sheet from WGT says reworking the cast housings. Sounds like a water leak.
