Paul, Richard Sohn, others.

It would appear from past info that Richard Sohn is using PPort, for his
Single rotor.
My question is that how will this run with a single at low RPM,
considering the ongoing problems
with the 2 rotor PPort.

Is the problem with PPort, that it is getting too much fuel air mixture
? and could this be
adjusted further for idle i.e. finer adjustment at idle !!?

Richard how are you going with those siamesed end plates !?

Richard is using both. He can close off the p-port at low
HP levels. The main problem with p-ports at low power levels
is overlap. Exhaust products mixing with intake charge.

One Rotor PP

As Paul said, I plan to use one side port and the PP. They will be used
staged, like side port to 40% power and the PP up. I do not have the answers
to all questions at this time. The engine will first be run with carburators
mechanically staged.
I believe I have solved some sealing isues on the AL-Side housing covers,
all seals are fully circular O-rings, except for the side port.
