I have a pfc... no idea about the oil thingy tho!

[owai]

KiHKs arse - sorry if i\'ve opened a can of worms  the oil  remark was just something i read on rx7club forums it\'s an american RX7 site ,  but i never  thought about the car smoking but i guess  you would be right ,  I think they mentioned something to do with when you start  the car there would be no oil in the rotor housings  or something along the lines.

No can of worms matey, i think there are several owners that use premix at either 100 to 1 or 150 to 1, i think its a good idea myself, and makes a lot of sense, it gives constant lubrication to apex seals etc. irrispective of temperature, or cold thick oil, and that can only be a good thing, i use Skill high revving chain saw oil for my premix. mine does not smoke at all, There is obviously nothing wrong with my metering pump, or the ecu would go into limp mode, but my car uses so little oil, i prefer the reassurance of knowing my housings etc, are getting the tinyest amount of permanent fresh oil protection all the time it\'s running, the car just sailed through MOT with excellent emmisions.

I have never heard of people adding oil to fuel on cars with the metering system being used still but i suppose it can be done.........car would smoke though i would of thought??

Like i said i have never heard of it until now which proves my theory that it can be done.

Thanks mate.

I run premix and the stock OMP, only 150:1 mind, but it adds a little safety to the system as I\'m pushing 380 odd BHP.

Soon taking the stock OMP out completely and running pure premix as it\'s a massively superior solution and should extend engine life.
The stock OMP is sh1te imho.

I was thinking about doing this.  Heard that if you do that you can then start using fully synthectic oil with peace of mind.   That in its self must be a good thing.

I\'m not sure about synthetic oils as I remember some mention of it degreding various seals.....best ask your tuner (pip) for his opinion on the matter.

I just want to remove the OMP because I believe it to be a poor solution to the lubrication of the seals. If it\'s premixed, the nanosecond you hit the throttle your seals have the lubrication and protection there in abundance.

The stock system is massively slow to react i comparisson....... BIN IT

[tomotadahira]

so how much oil to a full tank of fuel and also what type of oil. I am currently running the stock omp but want to be safe.

I use 330ml of oil per tank, use any fully synthetic 2 stroke oil as it does not affect octane.
