rx8 runs rough
You guys helped me the first time.. now I red line it and it cut out.. i think the rear rotor might be blown. I think the rear is gone how do I check it. It starts up and drives with low power. How do I k ow for sure it's gone. It has new plugs wires and coils

Compression test is the only absolute way.
You can also do an audible test.
Unplug the ESS.
Take plugs out of front rotor.
Crank Engine.
Listen -> You should hear compressed air coming out of the plug holes
Put plugs back in.
Repeat on Rear Rotor.
Does it sound different? Post a video perhaps for us to listen too as well.
Put plugs back in.
Reconnect ESS
Looking for an example?
