Running Premix=failed emissions?

Can you run premix and still pass emissions?
And also has anyone ever heard or been successful at puting extra air (via an airpump) in to the cats to pass emissions?

I have passed emissions twice with premix at 1 oz per gallon, so I dont know who says you cant, but they are wrong.

Yep, premixing at 120:1 passes with flying colours. Its not an issue.

If anything, it should be better than stock since 2-stroke oil burns better than dirty motor oil.
