Basically anything with a TC-W3 ratnig is fine for premixing. Many people run the wal-mart premix and have no problems.

> Fawking kool. My friend Tomasz and I were just talking about that. I'm selling him an extra TII motor and tranny to him for his 86 Corolla. He's planning to go Turbo Rotary and also doing the whole premix deal. Should be fun seeing an 86 with a Turbo Wankel in it.

I hope all you guys contemplating switching to premix realise it's a complete waste of time an old motor. Unless the motor is low-mileage, it's pointless.

1. Some of us like to cobble things up to make a better mouse trap (I'm not talking pouring oil in the gas tank as an example of a better mouse trap).

2. Dosn't everyone use new rotor housings on a rebuild??? They still make 'em and sell 'em.

3. Some humor,not all humor.

> Pretty much. The motor I have still has like 30K since rebuild. And the extra motor I'm selling to my buddy has roghly the same on it.

If your pictures weren't photoshopped to put lines on them then I might say yes.

I meant the effects on the picture, not the actual underlying picture. It looks like the canvas effect in photoshop.
