Someone once told me that since the rotor has three faces, the engine actually spins three times faster than the tach indicates https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif

Actually even better than that... someone once told me that they were considering buying an RX7 but changed their mind due to the head gasket problems. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

whats so wrong about that .... my headgasket blew a month ago

Well, heres one for the gang. When i bought my current FC.. damn thing wouldnt start, i was somewhat smart when it came to rotary engines.. i cranked it over a few times (she seemed flooded) i asked him what he thought was wrong with it... he said he took it to the dealer and they told him that the Headgasket was blown. WTF!!! i ended up buying my current car for 800$ started it in front of him and had my friend follow me home. needless to say, the dude wasnt happy

convo with my cousin, an Eclipse guy:



me: I got an RX-7. It's got a rotary engine, you know?

him: Naawwww, dawg! Them things are awesome, they never need the oil changed!

me: ...uh... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/dry.png

actually, i've heard it is like a 2-stroke, since for every rotation of the eccentric shaft there is a power "stroke". a 4 cycle, 2 stroke engine. ahh, the amazing wonder of the wankel...

My favorite:

When I'm at a gas station and a guy says, thats a small motor, how many cylinders?

Me: Whats a cylinder?

Guy: You know, pistons?

Me: What the hells a piston?

Guy: Nevermind.



Heh...I love doing that to people.
