Well hell, a four-stroke only fires 0.5 times per crankshaft rotation, so a 250F should actually be called a 125F by that logic?
Please tell me what the number of firing events per crank revolution has to do with displacement?

I was merely pointing out the fact that a single rotor Wankel in fact does not fire three times per crank rotation, it fires once. And that's why many experts agree that a single rotor Wankel can be compared to a single cylinder engine, rather than a three cylinder engine. Again, I said NOTHING about displacement.

And I quote, "Thus, engines with equal power should be compared: a naturally aspirated 1.3-liter Wankel engine with a naturally aspirated 1.3-liter four-stroke reciprocating piston engine with equal power. But such a four-stroke engine is not possible and needs twice the displacement for the same power as a Wankel engine. " hmmmmm, sounds like the same problem they have comparing a 4 stroke to a 2 stroke  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D
aaahhhhh yes, I remember the good old days

"Technology frightens me to death. It's designed by engineers to impress other engineers, and they always come with instruction booklets that are written by engineers for other engineers - which is why almost no technology ever works."
