hello hello,

i am having this problem of burning about a quart somtimes two of oil in any given week. I can see where most of this goes (directly out the tailpipe) should i be concerned about my apex seals? if so where is there a good place to check the compression on my 12A rotary.

... god knows how much other stuff the previous owner/mechanic threw into this thing

 

it could be your oil seals

 

Well, let's see: if you drive 200 miles a week, that's about 15 gallons of gas, and a quart is a quarter of a gallon, so that's a mixture ratio of about 60:1. That's a little high for pre-mix. You figure about 100:1 to 200:1.
