Can not find the answer to my question

I have done the search and can not find a answer.

Question????????
Is it ok to run premix in a non Carb rotory? Was gonna start running it in my GSL-SE for added safety.
If it is ok how many ounces should I put in per gallon?

On my Streetported 12a I am premixing without the OMP. Should I run the same ratio in the SE?
Also is there a better 2 stroke oil than Castrol?

Yes it is fine to premix with EFI.

Do not use as much two-stroke oil if your omp is still functioning.

Ok, So what is a safe amount per gallon?
BTW - I saw you were selling the 7. I will e-mail you.

I used to do about half an oz. per gallon on my GXL. I would get a second opinion if I were you though.

I've heard around 400:1 works fine. I've been running on my 12A around 125:1 with half of it working. One line is clean broken, and I've been too lazy to buy a new one, especially when the engine is coming out in march-april. I've run into no problems, no smoking or anything.

I run 1 ounce oil to 1 gallon of gas in my '83 GSL; carb'ed; disabled oil metering pump.

Just to give some idea.

I'm pretty sure my GT3 racer friend used Bel-Ray two-stroke oil in his RX3 at about 200:1 ratio.
1 oz. to a gallon (128:1) seems a mite rich, but definitely safe.
