Hi Paul, First off, I'd thank you for providing a website with so
much information on rotary engines.  I was pondering solutions to the
ever-present problem of apex seals and the emissions problems that
the burning of oil exacerbates.  I recently came upon an article
detailing the use of heavily-refined canola oil as a possible
renewable replacement for engine oil.  I was wondering if you had any
thoughts on whether such an oil could be used in rotary engines in
order to meet emissions standards?

Sincerely, Zane Willing


What emissions problems? You must be getting this info
from the Water Mellons. Maybe you have been brain washed
by your oxy professors :) Your not an oxy professor are you? :)
You need to suspend your emotional belief system
and become rational. ROFL

My RX8 passes the tough California test with flying colors.
The tester says my RX8 car is the cleanest he has ever tested.
I mix 1/2 oz of two cycle oil with each gallon of gas to insure
the life of the apex seals.

Use only synthetic oil in rotary engines.
Idemitsu makes and sells rotary engine oil.
