Right guys im toatally at the end of my wits with my RX8 last saturday night i took it out for a good couple of hours drive and parked it up outside my house shut it down poperly held it at 5000 RPM 10-12secs to push out fuel oil as ive always done. Went to start it on Tuesday morning absolutely nothing !! plenty of power in battery so wasnt battery rang out green flag and mechanic said it was flooded so pulled out Fuel Pump relay from fuse panel tried turning it over a few times then nothing !! in the end of trying said would need to be towed to a garage as access to spark plugs was difficult and had to be put on lift or ramp from below ! So the car was towed to garage on Tuesday to be de flooded Ive had a call from garage on Tuesday evening saying spark plugs are shot so have to order new plugs at 26 quid each x 4 ?? and also an oil and oil filter change its now Friday and ive heard nothing !!! can anyone give me some advice or help am i having my eyes pulled out here ???? is it really a hard fix to deflood an RX8 is there anyone out there who actually is an expert on these cars ?? is there any specialists in the north east ??
