Two Questions,

For some reason, Yesterday when i started my car the "Overheat Exh. Sys" Light was on, Right when i started it, What should i do?

Also,

I dont have much expierence with Rotaries, So what do you think is the perfect RPM range to shift when just driving regularly, and the same questions for when racing..


Thanks in Advance,


-Mike Goodwin

well 2500-3K is good for normal driving
Now in the racing question it all depends on what is done to your car. I mean everything that is on the car down to the tires has a factor in where your highest peak of power is.

In my '83 gsl, I run it all the way out to 8000, nail 2nd, and that's where my power hits. I also hit 3rd at 8000.
