it was all self inflicted i assumed you can get away with 10/40 oil coz the engine already uses it wen the oil injectors are useed and as for the dosage i just guest

You can use 10w40 you\'re right but i think what they\'re trying to say is why not use a proper premix oil which is designed to burn. In my eyes that is the main advantage of premixing. The removal of a potential failure item like the OMP is secondary to me.

Millers make a good premix oil. KB 2T.

I use that in the old 12A at 80ml to 20 litres fuel, thats 250:1

But my OMP is still enabled, if it wasn\'t I\'d go stronger premix - to 100:1 or something like that.

If you\'ve had it just ticking over on drive you\'ve possibly flooded it when you went to restart. Try it tomorrow and it will probably start......but you really need to be driving it to get it fully warmed up.

no luck think ive destroyed my sparkplugs just wating for motor factors to open
to get a new set  
no longer sparking just smoking lol
i put an old bmw plug on the HT leads and all coils sparking so now the waiting game

ive tried burning and cleaning the plugs to get rid of crap  still no spark
only 1 spark plug is alive and that only sparks sometimes

put your plugs tip down in oven cleaner overnight if they\'re fouled up, never fails.

as for premixing with standard engine oil... the whole point of using 2T is that it\'s \'ashless\', meaning you don\'t get carbon deposits in your engine :Thumbs-up

Just get some new ones in there, if they are tired you\'ll only have to do it sooner rather than later and you\'ll probably end up breaking down away from home so why bother trying to save £30-£40   :Thumbs-up
