Have you taken a good whiff of MMO? It has a distinctly sweet aroma. You'd swear it was a coffee sweetener/flavor.
Does your exhaust have a rich, full bodied aroma like a Starbucks late?

Anyway, what do you expect??? you added MMO to your fuel, and not expect a change in exhaust "scent"
Why are you using MMO for pre-mix anyway??
I have always used TC-W3 marine oil.

you guys must have a stigma against my reletively low number of posts.
If my old screen name was working I am sure i would not be getting this level of disrespect. I am on here to help, not to be a troll.
IF you are running Pre-mix i suggest you look into the TC-W3.. it is far cheaper and actually designed to be a pre-mix. I have used it in my roadrace, autoX and street rotaries for years.
research the MMO and see if creates a sludge after being burnt a while.
as for a smell from the exhaust, what ratio of MM0 to fuel are you using.
Another idea to get rid of pre-mixing your sump oil is to get an OMP adaptor from rotaryaviation that meters a seperate supply of 2 cycle oil, such as TC-W3... into the engine for proper pre-mix.
Think about it.. wouldn't it make sence to consider an "aviation" component or suggestion than someones off the cuff decision to use MMO? When/If you engine blows, I am much more fond of the idea of it dying on track where i can roll safely to the side, than at 30000 +
feet. (here is a link if anyone would like to see it.) {http://www.rotaryaviation.com/oil_injector_pump_adaptors.htm}
This being said,.... I use MMO too... only occassionally in large doses to clean the inside of the trocoide surfaces... just before replacing sparkplugs
