New to forum but I've had my '88 convertible since new

Thanks a lot. One more thing. A technician for a Mazda dealer suggested that I rev the engine to around 7000 whenever I drive the car. As my car has been getting older I rarely have been revving it past 5000 or 5500 and I do not rev it that high every time I drive it. Do you agree with revving it to 7000 or so every time I drive as something that is good for the engine?

Rotaries like to be driven and driven hard. The whole redline a day debate is just that. Everyone has an opinion on it but few hard cold facts. It is better to run them hard to keep carbon build up off of them. Hence run to redline. But "running" it to redline then shutting it down isn't the best idea. Again like I said earlier keep the oil changed keep it from running hot and NA's will last a long time. So drive around neighboorhood find some good open area's and have fun.
