That's what I was saying. You need to floor it (WOT) to let in maximum air to clear chamber, if it is not too wet already. Electronic will mimic that. Maybe even better, WOT air but not fuel?? However. if too wet , and plugs all wet, no trick could help.

Crank slowly too if you are getting flooded.

No tricks? Yes there is. Change plugs.... :D

Yes of course! Fuel cells! Don't know how I missed that, I once owned the stock Interesting reports on how the Renesis is uniquely designed to maximize fuel cell efficiency with hydrogen. However, current rotary hydrogen prototypes reported to be really lacking in torque which has always been a basic downside to the rotary.

cos the power is pathetic...that is why even lower torque. Basically bhp is correlated to engine rpm and torque. Due to the high rpm and almost linear power delivery characteristic, rotary tends to have lower torque.

Give them sometime and they will have better power from fuel cells.
