I just read a great article on running ATF through
the Rotary, supposedly to loosen up the apex seals, etc. (high detergent
level). Raves on about having done this multiple times in many engines,
and supposedly power increases of up to 20% +. Anybody done this?
Results?
Thanks;

Lynn, thanks for the heads up on the
engine. Even though it is in a heated garage with hot water heat in
the floor, I pulled the plugs and put oil in each rotor cavity and rolled it
over 8 revolutions and duct taped the exhaust. That should even oil
the muffler bearings when I start it again.
