Another question about fuel, rotary are very fuel versatile and not too
octane sensitive,but most people use mogas. I assume it must be regular,
in Calif. you do not even have access to the highest octane premium fuel
now.  What changes/adjustments have to be made to use other fuel, such
as diesel, jet A, or anything else flammable.
Compressed gas fuel I think are too difficult for aviation use for now.
Can the other fuel be mixed with gasoline?? A straight diet of diesel
may free the owner from mixing oil in the fuel since diesel have
lubricating properties.

They can be made to run on diesel but not compression ignition so far.
Therefore there is no improvement in BSFC.

The current geometry does not allow the necessary high compression ratio.
