I am new to these rotary engines but a life time backyard mechanic. cant seem to get this low miles 84 12 A to run strong, it starts easy idles good don't smoke or make any weird noise but you really have to put your foot in it to get any power. I have been over the normal tuning things,I have never driven a rotary be for don't know how there supposed to perform but until I kick in the 4 barrels its a real dog an even when I have it floored I think it should do better, if it where a piston engine I would be looking for a jetting problem, I don't think that is the trouble hear. could it be a plugged up catalytic converter ?
 
Hello my friend.
First of all check the oil stick if it has water zstick on if it does then this is no good you must not have any water mix with the oil. get rid off the catalytic converter!More flow more power.
Then change the spark plugs the spark plugs wires and the ignition coils!
Then take for a ride if you notice that there is no power then you have to take a compresion test for sure!
