Question Carbon

so in what ways a roatary can build carbon??
can someone list everything??
and every way to prevent it??
the costs??
does it reduce performance??

also, i use 20w-50 Castrol GTX in my rx7.
i thought, thick would protect better
and since it's non synthetic, it would burn better
someone please respond~~

(1) Too much fuel. Lean the idle and cruise areas out as much as posible.
Under boost run water/alky injection and lean out the AFRs a little.

(2) Too much slow driving. Drive car at high speeds periodically under high boost.

(3) Oil injection. Remove MOP and run smokeless premix.

Keep it in good tune.
Look for any oil with a low ash analysis.
Use a high quality fuel EG: Chevron.

The S5 oil injection is about as good as it gets.
Only the Renesis uses less oil.

Chevron? High Quality fuel? ....Isn't all the fuel at gas stations the same?
The only reason why I drive it slow at times is because I mostly try to preserve gas for that entire week. Now there are times to where I'll put it in L(automatic) and run it up to 80 at about 5-6k, and let off. Is that a good way of getting rid of it?
