this is probably a frequently asked question but I was wondering what you guys use for fuel additives? the last one I seen was from a year or two ago so I was wanting to know what you guys use now. I know on mustangs we use seafoam but I didn't know if that was safe to use rotary engines or on it or from a start up from sitting for a couple of years. I had a friend check the gas to make sure it was still good and he gave me the thumbs up but told me to make sure I put some 93 in and run 93 for a couple tanks.


when I checked it out before my father bought it. the guys had the intake off and had it running by shooting carb cleaner in it. so I know it fires and runs. just need the fuel pump changed which is done and sitting in the trunk waiting to go in and a new battery/battery housing put in it cause they took the battery out since it belonged on one of their race cars.


any knowledge and help would be appreciative.

seafoam, techron, berrymans. no one is best for everything so just pick one and try it.

thanks rotary. I was just checking to make sure seafoam wouldnt mess it up. last thing I need to do is blow the motor up trying to get it started. after that get it moving and check the clutch. don't know if I have a bad clutch or a bad master/slave. just know we had a problem getting it to shift while we were pushing it up and down the ramps to the trailer.....then to get it moving when I moved a whole house over.
