Re: Easy to rebuild
No, piston motors are far easier to rebuild (IMO).
If your going to do your own rebuild then get the videos to go with it otherwise it probably wont run. :P

Re: Easy to rebuild

Re: Easy to rebuild
It's relatively easy to rebuild one. It's hard to rebuild one right. It's relatively easy to rebuild one and make it run. It's hard to rebuild one and make it run for more than 10k miles. Checking housings for proper condition is rather hard. Making sure all the seals are perfect is hard.

Re: Easy to rebuild
I came from a piston backround. I can rebuild them in my sleep as well as rotaries. But unless you have some experance with rotaries then its not easy at all. Pretty much anyone can do it, but to make it wor for any lenght of time is what matters.
drift, your engine builder is an engine builder, it better be easy for him to build the god dam motors up. Its his job. LOL
