Putting oil (2-stroke) into gasoline, it's ok or not?

I've heard a lot about putting oil into gasoline, even in cars injected, it is good, bad or it does not.

Thanks for the comments.

Yes, search "premix".

Rotary engines inject motor oil into the combustion chamber to lubricate the insides. 2 stroke oil is better because it is designed for use in combustion chambers. It burns cleaner, etc. You can add 0.5 oz. per gallon of gas to improve lubrication & sealing. If you disable the stock motor oil injectors (OMP/"Oil Metering Pump") you can add 1 oz per gallon of gas, but you better not forget or you'll cause serious engine damage. Use any TCW-3 certified 2 stroke oil. In any case, the stock OMP is still good enough and premixing is not in any way necessary.

Do a search for more specifics.

You can supplemental mix too... name one person who has destroyed their injectors by pre-mixing.
