OK Tracy, Ed, Anyone,
Have you investigated running high energy coils for a better
spark to avoid SAG? Racing rotaries have run endurance races running all sorts
of "moon gas" with minimal problems. They don't usually run as long as you are
talking about. (20 or more hours) The racing fuel is almost always highly
leaded fuel to provide high octane. While helping with several cars we never
had this problem. Does anyone know if Mazda ran an unleaded fuel in the LeMans
effort? Almost all the car guys run MSD iginitions of some type. I know Lynn
id running MSD in his car. While building racing motorcycle engines I checked
out the Saab Turbo ingition with Ferrofluidic (Superfinely ground iron
particles in supension) Coils. A really neat sustem with a single coil at each
plug. The 4 LS-1 coils should do the same thing though.

Subject: [FlyRotary] Re: Auto v 100LL
I have only used auto gas , but will not hesitate to use 100LL if auto
not convenient on long cross country. I added 24 gal capacity to my 9A to keep
from buying as much 100LL.
For some reason it seems like Tracy said the A/F sensor also lasted
longer on auto same as spark plugs.
