Most mechanics that arent too experienced with rotaries are impressed with how well a high mileage running rx-7 runs... they are just such smooth engines it can be surprising to those not familiar with it. When I used to visit the muffler shop I worked at a long ass time ago in my 7 to do an oil change or get tires put on it the mechanics wouldnt believe it was a 100k mostly stock NA car.... especially when I left two equal length long ass patches accross the lot (they didnt know it had LSD either)... I tried my best to educate them on the mysteries which rested under the hood but strangely most of them preferred to stay ignorant, mechanics are weird... I guess they didnt like the lack of a valvetrain.

What Exactly are the advantages to running no Oil Metering Pump (OMP) & premix vs. having one and using the engine as it was originally designed?...also how exacyly do you premix?

omp = easy for everday normal ppl, if it breaks(which is somewhat hard to tell, unless u have an s5) and u don't notice ur focked



premix=

1) don't have to worry about not getting oil to the apex seals

2)cleaner engine (burns cleanly and completly) no carbon buildup!!!

3) u can run synthetic in the crankcase w/o worry about does it burn completly since it won't be burned

4) smoother running

5) inconvient for average mofo.



to premix u just through in some 2 stoke oil before everyfill 1oz per gallon if not running the OMP

i use Valvoline VR-1 20/50 in my FC. it has worked fine so far and they recommend it if you

run your car hard

1 oz per gallon..whats that in ml per liter? European member.

Oh,one more thing, when running the omp plus premix, what is the recommended ratio...in ml per liter.

Many thanks



John

so, every time i am poor and need just $5 gas..i have to add premix?...this is where i am totally lost

Yes you would have to do stick to the gas : oil ratio you use at all other times.
