2007 Mazda RX8

Hello! If you have a misfire you may want to start with replacing your ignition coil/pack for cylinder 2 and while your at it replace all spark plugs, ensure they're gapped appropriately

Coil packs were replaced about a year to a year and a half ago along with the plugs. Car got flooded so we had to the flood the car. Thinking maybe we found out one of the plugs while trying to restart it.

Deflood the car. Thinking maybe one of the plugs is fouled out or the gapping got messed up.

I'm betting thats where the problem is! I say try first replacing cylinder 2 spark plug THEN try going for the ignition pack. Im not a mechanic but i do work on my own cars and i always start with the cheapest solution!

I am guessing the cylinder two will be the two plugs in the back.

this look familiar ?

Not at all. Only has plug wires on one side of engine and that's the driver's side. Thanks for helping...

Weedy flooded the engine. I was told I would have to reset the number 2 cylinder. Did that and it did not help. Replace the plugs all the number 2 cylinder and it's still not running good. Last night when I put the new plugs in it ran fine but this morning it started running bad again. May have to replace the other two plugs and I only used to plug specify for that car which are $20 a piece.

Was told by a reputable mechanic that profession rebuilds rotaries that if you flood ond bad change spark plugs and if it still wont crank put about two ounves of transmission fluid in each housing and try again i did and car became evil lol started right up even though i had a coil not firing properly but found that due to getting it running replaced the coils and wires and had it turn key cranking in about 2 days of cranking and letting it tune itself lost the memory when it went dead on me
