MAZDA RX7 1988 car safety problem was reported on Aug 10, 1999.MAZDA RX7 1988, manufactured by MAZDA NORTH AMERICAN OPERATIONS had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE . the problem i had, with the fuel pulsation damper, is an extremely serious and hazardous situation. located on top of the upper intake, there is a screw that will back itself out that seals the pulsation damper closed. when this screw backs out, a strong gasoline smell is noticed in the engine bay and inside the vehicle. on turbocharged cars, the pulsation damper is located directly over the exhaust manifold...this is not good! especially for a design that seems to back itself out over time. the part is quite expensive, i feel that this is not the cause of user abuse, but rather poor design and the consumer should not be made to suffer, especially for such a faulty design with such hazardous consequences. this is an extremely serious problem, and i'm sure if you contacted more rx-7 owners (2nd gen, 86-88), you would fine numerous people have this problem (although might not know where the 'fuel leak' is coming from!). thank you for your time..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JM1FC3519J0.

MAZDA RX7 1988 car safety problem was reported on July 23, 2004.MAZDA RX7 1988, manufactured by MAZDA NORTH AMERICAN OPERATIONS had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . mazda rx7 defect 86-91. mazda is well aware of this ongoing issue but will not issue a recall. the pulsation damper on all mazda rx7's from 1986-1991 is prone to failure. the device literally comes apart allowing fuel to leak out. eventually enough fuel leaks out and onto the hot exhaust manifold causing a vehicle fire. i have now been involved with two of these incidences. the first one occurred approximately five years ago when the engine caught fire on my 1986 rx7, luckily i was able to put the fire out before total devastation. the result of the fire was about $1500.00 worth of repairs. the repair shop said that the fire was the result of a fuel leak from the pulsation damper. i now own a 1988 rx7 convertible and all of the sudden i began to smell fuel inside the car really strong, so strong in fact that i thought that the fuel tank must be leaking. i immediately parked the car and started to give it the once over never thinking that with the smell being soo strong that it could be coming from the pulsation damper. i checked the gas tank and every hose on it, not a drop of fuel, as a last resort i figured i better check the pulsation damper and sure enough fuel was pouring out of it. i think that if my car had not been a convertible i would have not noticed it until it was too late and had another fire. now even though there was no fire it is still going to cost around $500.00 to repair because the part is located underneath the fuel injection assembly which has to be completely removed in order to access the pulsation damper. i believe mazda should be responsible for the repair, they know that they have a potentially dangerous/deadly situation and will do nothing about it. *tr.Vehicle was on fire.
