Tue, 13 August 2002 08:08 sorry to come in with late information... part of the reason for chuggine fuel is the rotary's huge requirement to consume air!!! for a given power output, a same size piston engine will consume less air. so to keep the engine happy, it needs to have an appropriate air/fuel ratio... more air, more fuel!!! rotaries are often avoided in racing situations where intake restrictors are used. this is simply because fo a given amount of air consumption, a piston engine makes more power!!!
