Add 2 Cycle Oil to a tank of gas = same thing, mainly used for cars with OMP removed....

I'm certain someone will ague this... after all it is the RX7 forum...

If you're new to FDs, and your car still has the oil metering system, then IMO this is way down on the list of priorities. It is extra insurance for engine wear, but the kind of wear that isn't usually critical in these engines.

I run the Idemitsu fuel lube (pre-mix) at 120:1 and plugged the OMP...best overall solution in my book, 4 stroke oil is not designed to burn, it will leave deposits
