Is this correct?
I was told premix should be 150:1 fuel to oil ratio. Is that correct?

Yes, that is about what most people premix at. Many premix at 128:1 (1 oz per gallon) because it is easier to figure out /keep track of how much oil to add. I assume that you are talking about how much premix with no omp connected.

Werd. I don't like having my OMP zip tied open. I'm gonna go premix, but I'll probably get a gas can or two to mix in then use those to pour into the car. Just like a lawn mower. I can use a calculator to figure it out. Thank you.

Dont go too high though.While I was waiting for my custom front cover to be finished,I was premixing in the tank and had a stock S4 OMP bolted up just running at idle setting(for sake of having the OMP system sealed up and complete)
The power delivery and topend was horrible.Felt like I was making about 8psi when I was actually making 14psi! It was just too much oil fouling up the mix.This can actually cause you to go lean because in a given volume of premix, the oil takes the place of some of the fuel,and oil is NOT fuel. |

NA wankels like low octane... another benefit of premixing.
