Hi all,

   I just read a somewhat interesting article in the new EAA
electronic magazine, < http://eaa.org/experimenter/issues/ >.

http://www.eaa.org/experimenter/articles/2009-01_engine.asp

   IIRC, the rotary has a bit of a reputation for being able to
run on darned near anything that will burn (100 proof?).

   With direct injection - just after the intake ports are
obscured - a realistic possibility, I wonder if the 13B
couldn't be a star platform for a heavy fuel solution.

   Hmm, I've got an extra engine, and if I can ever get the
"fly" engine on the airplane ... nah, just another distraction
to keep me from finishing the COZY.  After that?
