I tried a Solution used from a previous posting... The automatic transmission fluid, (ATF), trick.
After doing everything in the mainianace manual, without a positive outcome... I tried it..
3 capfulls in each trailing spark plug hole... but it must be after or just after the apex went past the hole...
remember turn the shaft manually until the apex passes. Also remember their are six apex seals, 3 on the front rotor and 3 on the back, thats 18 cap fulls total. Don't worry if some drips or pours out after putting it in the spark plug hole. I did it with a med seringin. but be careful the end could break off in the plug hole.(don't ask) Just make sure you do all six just after each apex. Then take both leading plugs off and spray them with starter fluid and put them back just after you spray them. This, I was told, was to make sure the car fires on the first start. IT works.....
This is also a trick after having starting problems when the car floods.......
That why I waited so long to try it, I did need it for flooding.....
This swells up the seal... they got dried out from sitting at least four years... ATF soaks into them and
helps the compression...

its not hard at all. as long as your good with your hands. and know the basics of your rx7. other then that everything bolts in. you just need a turbo driveshaft for sure. or they sell a custom driveshaft on mazdatrix.com so you can keep your N/A differential.

Hi, Thank you for contacting fixya.com. The
best solution to this problem is to give your vehicle a little time. Prop up
your hood and wait for a few minutes before you attempt to start your car
again. This time, be careful of how much fuel you're sending to your engine
system. In short, don't depress the pedal too much or too often.If this doesn't
work, then you may need to actually open your vehicle's carburetor and you will
need to use some WD-40 or ether-based spray to dry up the excess fuel before
you can start your vehicle again. WD-40 and ether sprays are highly flammable,
so use them with caution. And please don't leave your vehicle running and don't
smoke while you use these flammable products. If while doing this you find out
that your carburetor is no longer in good working condition, then do replace
your carburetor with a high quality replacement part. Also
