As someone who never owned a rotary engine car, I was wondering about this
question.  I believe that we have reached a concensus on the need for two
stroke oil in the fuel when running the 13b in an aircraft (>5000 rpm
continuous).  How did the 13b in an auto deal with lubricating the apex
seals?  Is there a seperate oil reservoir for oil or does the engine just
"burn" more oil than a regular piston auto engine?  Thanks,  Marc M

Burns the crap out of the crankcase.
Every engine I ever looked into was carboned up so bad you could barely
scrape it off with a chisel. Several had stuck apex seals.

Hey all,
Does anyone know if Richard Sohn (sp?) ever make those adaptors for the oil
injection for the electronic metering pumps pads?
I know he sold some of the mechanical adaptors.

Richard, are you there?
