Interestingly, in a recent discussion with a Mazda tech, I was told that total hibernation (battery out, no starts all winter) is a bad idea for a rotary engine because the apex seals "dry out". I always start mine and warm it up to operating temps at week-to-ten day intervals, so he said I was in no danger- and especially since I use premix. But this was the first time I've heard of apex seals "drying out" during storage. Wondering if he knew what he was talking about?
