thanks for all the info now rotary 7 ive herd from other people also that the vert is heavier is that because the body is stiffened up for the convertable top??

 

hey guys my car is acting up out of no where it has an a/f gauge and it started reading that im running rich and i made the mistake and put 87 fuel in it i filled it up with 93 now but its still running rich it also smells like a old muscle car 9(best way to describe it) and now it sounds like my exhaust is rattling and the car idles high well i think its high at 1100 or 1200 rpms and when i turn the car off it like ticks and makes the sound when metal cools and pops ??? any ideas

 

hmmmm try running some premix on your next fill up. it's best to always fill up and not to put in here and there. i run 2 stroke engine oil everytime i fill up. and being as you have an NA you dont need anything higher than 87 octane unless youre looking for flames out a straight piped exhaust .


add 1/2 quart of 2 cycle fuel injection oil to every fill up. if you were running a turbo model you would want to disconnect the stock OMP. BUT the series 4 has a mechanical oil pump and you dont have to worry about it.


so run 87 octane, 1/2quart 2 cycle FI oil to your fill up, and see how it does.




adding premix not only lubricates rotor housings, but it also prevents uneven wear and will keep away carbon build up. FYI it doesnt clog FI

 

okay i just herd from some rx8 guys to run high octane in my car otherwise the apex seals dry out

 

Yes and its more than the TII

a/f guage on n/a rotarys IMO are worthless.

Fuel rule #1 on rotarys are.
If its not boosted it doesnt need anything higher than 87,It burns easier..

Idle on your car if im correct,stock port motor should be like 800-900?




It took over 30 yrs of rotary experiance from Mazda to have RX8 guys tell you that?

 

haha thanks guys the gauge came with the car haha figured it was useless thanks for all the info what was that stuff i should put in my fuel system???

 

2 cycle engine oil, like for lawn mowers
