1 oz. 2 cycle oil/gallon gas works well for me.

Yup. I plugged up the oil injector holes and had a blockoff plate covering the hole left by removing the oil metering pump.

If you're still using the stock OMP you should go with about 1 oz. oil/gallon of gas.

I have the OMP and I use some premix once a week or so. Just to be on the safe side.

I've noticed this too.



I premix all the time. Took an engine apart with a bad water seal. The inside of the engine was CLEAN. Barely any carbon build up! I think of it as better safe than blown engine
