No need for oil in the gas for our cars. We have no issues with the rotors getting stuck if the car sits too long. We have no rotors. Set the HVAC and forget it. Why would you not run premium fuel as what is recommended for our vehicle the way it is tuned.

Think on how it couldn't. Fuel lines are not designed for oil to be pumped through them, much less the other components and fuel injectors. I cannot even believe you are asking this to be quite honest.

TL;DR: It's called a gas tank, not an oil tank.

I've had 2 RX-8's, and 2 Rx-7's, you have to pre-mix on the rotary engines. They like dirty gas, it actually drastically helps the engine. Ultra-clean gas will kill a rotary engine.

I'm about 99.99999999999% positive you should not do that to a non-rotary engine.

Because we live in A$$ **** fuel state CA. WHY U NO SELL 93 CA?

It's not too big of a deal(evidently) to run 91 10% corn sh1t gas. I run lean on it judging by my tail pipe color, but it does alright. At track I throw 1-2 gallons of 100 in and it does run smoother, I do knock sometimes on 91 at 6K+, usually right after shift.

1) Has been answered before.
2) Read your owners manual it has a lot of good information like what fuel you can use.
3) This is a 4 stroke piston engine that can oil itself properly. Rotary engines cannot oil themselves properly which is why it is beneficial to have a very little 2 stroke oil in the gas.

Do not premix oil and gas for your Z.

Even in a rotary powered vehicle, if the factory oil injection is working properly, I would not premix.

damnit, i traded my 350Z for a 370Z for this exact reason of feeling like being in civic status with the 350Z and hopefully the 370Z being out of reach for kids
