What is the best oil to run a rotory?
I have heard that it isn't good to run a full synthetic oil because in the combustion stage it doesn't breakdown enough. Shed some light if you know what is true about this subject.

Summer - Castrol GTX 20W50
Winter - Castrol GTX 10W30
^ This is what I run in my car. Most people on these forums do as well.
If you want to run synthetic use Royal Purple.

This is a question with as many varied answers as there are members. Personally, I like Castrol 20w-50. I've heard Valvoline, Quaker State, Penzoil, etc. Even the members with countless years of rotary knowledge argue about this subject. Because of this "explosive" subject with all, I have taken it upon myself to e-mail 5 manufacturers of motor oil with "scientific" proof of their products superiority in ROTARY engines only. We will see how many respond, and will give results next week.
