I wonder if anyone here ever heard about premix fuel for rotary engines? I learned about this in this video last year. So basically Mazda did have a rotor housing lubricating system that was not that good. The guy in the video deleted that system and premixed the fuel with 2T oil to lube the housing. A quick check around sites confirmed that this was a method used to extend the life of the seals.



Go to 6:29.

One guy in some forum said that while premixing is great, it does have its drawback that the ratio cannot change to accommodate different loads. Some said a more complex solution of separate reservoir with metered feed is the best way.

I wonder is anyone in Malaysia used either these methods before?
