Ah!! But Mazda dealers tell lies, a well known fact, it\'s about the only thing that Mazda actually teaches them, especially about rotaries. :evillaugh

just started at 100ml per full tank 60 litres. so 600 to 1 on an R3 mind so has 3 oil injectors.
I think this oil residue may be from omp and the misses cruising in traffic.
 
Prob goona crank right back but goona see what my sparks are like tomoz as been in my tank 2 fills for this Exol stuff. ( 50 miles ha ha) mine gets revved! so see whats what tomoz.
 
I wanna premix with omp the R3 as will be mine 1 day !
