Is it all right to run premix(2 stroke motor oil) while having a possibly functional OMP? About how much do you add to the gas and what are some very good brands to use? I am not sure about my OMP right now and my car is out in the cold without a damn garage. So I need to start it here and there so the apex's don't seal up on me. So I just need a little help on what I should do? Thanks for the help guys

 

You can use premix with the OMP you just use less.I think the mixture is 4oz. of oil to one tank of gas.When I mix I use Valvoline.The most important thing about the 2-stroke oil is that you get one that isTC-W3 certified.It will be marked on the bottle.

 

Thanks a lot, oh and this should make the car smoke, correct? I mean adding oil into the gas isn't all that good for the plugs, and plug wires but oh well. I just will run it until I get it in a garage at the beginning of spring. Thanks again.

 

what the hell does it have to do with the plug WIRES???
and as for the plugs themselves, 2-cycle oil burns cleaner so i dont see why

 

What does "TC-W3 certified" mean?

 

i think TC-W3 certified means that its ok to use in fuel injected engines. can someone comfirm this?

 

TCW3 is a 2-stroke oil cert. It means the oil burns cleanly(no deposits) and still does its job as a lubricant.

4 oz to a tank of gas just seems to high a ratio to have any meaningful effect. I use 1/2 oz per gallon of gas
