Lubricating oil is important in all mechanical devices. Bio-diesel can be used in heavy equipment and machinery like trucks, trains, ships and airplanes.
oil is also "sprayed" ? into the burning chamber ? if what i understood is correct then thats why it consumes oil alot of oil (1 liter every 1000 miles)
Chace Ogden the rotary engine is consuming oil by design, partly like two stroke , oil that enters combustion cavity/chamber is burned , thats why this engine is no longer produced , because pollution control
Regular motor oil. Conventional fossile fuel or high quality synthetic. Some people remove the oil injection system and mix 2 stroke oil into the gas. Some people premix 2 stroke oil and keep the stock oil injection system
@@THElegoBUILDER5825 Sorry, but all the factual evidence conclusively proves that _WANKEL_ engines are inherently unreliable and have a significantly shorter service life than comparable reciprocating engines. Not true, if you love working on broken cars... you have a career as a mechanic... If you enjoy driving? You buy a car that does not have a Wankel engine.
_Pressure in the shaft builds up_
great video, thanks for posting. I was looking at lubrication of rx 8 after blewing up my engine and now need new engine and clutch !!
Yea, you have to keep the oil topped up

so does it means that the lube burn with the air fuel mixture too?
MrLaoli exactly
ilsac or sl. but which brand to choose from? and what is this synthe-renesis 0-30 rx8?

They consume oil due to oil metering pump injecting oil throughout the oil nozzles.
How does the oil return to the oil pan? Does it return if it is sprayed onto the rotary cavities?

thanks!
So, does it need certain type of oil (e.g. 2-stroke oil), or just regular motor oil?
use idemitsu oil
its kinda a in-between i heard

Mazda only recommends 4stroke motor oil

Sorry guys, but a wankel engine is a 4 stroke petrol engine...
British Petroleum VISCO
Just premix
Just buy a better car..

Where's the fun in a reliable car
@@THElegoBUILDER5825 There is nothing fun about a unreliable car...
@@sandervanderkammen9230 As long as you keep good care of your rotary it'll last you just fine. Working on cars is half the fun of it anyway.
