I just bought the 93 rx7 type S twin turbo. Im having two problems with the turbo. One, every odd time I start the car the turbo wont work (running on just engine). I have to shut off the car and turn it back on a couple times before it works. My other problem is that when im sitting in the 80km/hr range and accelerate the car jerks hard and sometimes wont switch to the next gear, I have to let off and try again before it will accelerate. Is my turbo slowly falling apart? Or is something wrong with my electrical?

Hi there,

I would have the turbo system inspected by a qualified turbo repairer as there is no margin for error here, turbo repairs can be very expensive if let to long so get it checked ASAP.
