I start my 84 gsl-se up n it starts right up then then the choke kicks off then it runs fine till about 10 -15 min and then boggs out.Car does not smoke, the timing is on point both leading and trailing , and exaust smells really clean,Also what would be the best oil u can use in a rotary.THANKS going crazy.

na it wont it almost sounds like it s running on one rotor , but runs fine when i first start it for about 15 min weird. I changed the oil metering sensor cause the guage was acting funny, preasure n then no presure now it works good, but now the temp guage is acting funny goes all the way up then down then normal then nothing then alll the way up past hot does the car have a over heat cut off switch.

no it doesn't, that's how i lost my first fb :/ the fact that it starts is a good thing though. check all of the plugs and wires since it sounds like it's running on one rotor it may be. if it's starting fine but dying afterwards that doesn't sound like a fuel problem.
