List,
I've got no problem with event specific gas, 87-114 octane seems to work
fine for me. The question I have is this: Is there gonna be a problem with
me adding a specific amount of 2 cycle oil to the gas? On the Mazda rotary
engine this oil is required to lubricate the engines seals which are not
otherwise lubricated by crankcase oil. My current engine still has the
factory oil injection pump on it, which meters crankcase oil into the
carburetors float bowl. On my new engine I've deleted the pump and have
been mixing the oil in the tank. I don't want to open an "additives"
can-of-worms here, but this is a requirement for rotaries and probably some
two cycle machines. If the oil is added under the supervision of event
officials I wouldn't expect any problems. Anything I'm missing here?
Dave Dahlgren, any new ways to deal with oil injection for rotaries?
