I'm using Idemitsu rotary pre-mix. the bottle says to use half an ounce per gallon. I use 1 ounce per gallon. It smokes a bit on start up then goes away. I feel like trying half ounce per gallon instead.

I plan on running my 13b forever without a rebuild.

Use whatever ratio you want. I don't care. I gave my personal opinion.
More power needs more oil. More RPM needs more oil. If you want to run it lean, go for it. Hell, I've heard of people not running ANY oil with OMP disabled. I wonder what the life for those motors are.

My comment was not meant to be negative. Oil reduces the octane of the fuel, aka" octane reducing fuel contamination ". It can also cause hot spots which lead to preignition...
