I don't blame you there. How mechanically inclined is your mechanic and rotary engine knowledge?
OMP. Oil metering pump which distributes proper amount of oil into rotary chambers thru oil nozzle for lubrication.
What I would do if it was my FC I would pour some lucas oil into a chamber thru plug holes and manually rotate for a while and let it thoroughly coat internally. I would ck for good grounding on ECU, ck the batt cable. I, then, would ck for spark to see. I would def change fuel filter and ck to see fuel flow afterward.
After procedure above, I would fire it up and see what happens. It will take a bit of time to get it going if everything works. If not, I would do a vac leak test & see.
Of course, that will be something I would be doing to my own FC but I will not take any responsibility of the outcome, I just want to throw that in as with all suggestion thru any forums.
Talk it over with your mech and see if it all make sense to him. So, overall, you'd be dishing out fuel filters some oil, probably less than 2 hrs of time.
