What kinda of oil to use as premix
 
Hi

So i have a brand new rebiuld atkins engine w/ 3mm seals and a street port and im running pre mix i was using amsoil 2 cycle oil but i cant find anymore of it dose anyone have any idas of what kind of oil i should be using? and what ratio to what

darkrocket 09-15-07 09:47 AM

I use any regular oil or 2cycle I put 12oz to a tank

darkrocket 09-15-07 09:48 AM

With 10w 40 I get good seal then 2 cycle oil just clean the injecters once awile.

PM me if you still want the Amsoil 2-stroke.

RX7 GUY 09-17-07 11:33 AM

are you realy Suppose to put oil in the gas tank?

Chuck 09-17-07 02:58 PM

I really don't think putting 10W40 in the gas tank is a very good idea. The OMP injects a small amount of crankcase oil into the combustion chamber, not the gas tank. Just asking for trouble. Clogged injectors, clogged fuel filter. Yuk!

As for premix oil (OK for the gas tank) any 2 stroke rated TCW3 is OK.

PDViper77 09-17-07 03:49 PM

I use whatever is at the gas station. I put in 1 oz per gallon of 2 stroke oil. Oh anad I don't have an OMP.

RX7 GUY 09-18-07 01:08 PM

o ok so you guys are adding 2 cycle oil when you fill up 1oz:1gal ratio oil to gas
what kinda would be the best to use?
sorry im a new rx7 owner so im still learing all the ins and outs
thanks for the help
ps. pdviper77 i love you rx i wanted a 95 but cant aford it so i got an 88 for now lol
that years yours?

RX7 GUY, you probably don't have to worry about it. These guys have either disabled or eliminated their stock oil metering pumps and so instead have to mix the oil into the gas by hand. Assuming your car is stock and the OMP is in good working order, you don't have to do that. Read up in the FAQs and do a search for "premix" to find out more about it.

Klotz 1oz /1gal

Amsoil HP injector oil, 1oz./gal seems to work well with minimal smoke once its warm.

JunpoweR 09-21-07 05:39 AM

Castrol Syntec Blend 20-50 running through engine & OMP

Castrol 2-Stroke

Mix ratio 1\4 qt every full tank.

Never had problems.

RX7GUY - It has been proven that premixing oil in your gas is very good for the engine.

Here is some reading.

I use either Protek or Amsoil in my car. I run 6 ounces per fillup for daily driving and 1 ounce per gallon when Autocrossing or doing track days.

Mr_FC 09-25-07 05:34 PM

I was advised to run castrol marine grade 2stroke at 80mls to a 1Litre not sure what that converts to for gallons. It works well no smoke and adequate lubrication. Only thing with pre mix is its advised to upgrade ignition to stop plugs fouling.

diabolical1 09-25-07 07:43 PM

if there is nothing wrong with the car (ignition) already and if you keep the ratios reasonable, you should never have fouling issues. at least, that's been my experience since i started premixing years ago - and that was stock ignition.

reg oil
 
:sperm: :MissileSm I also put taluine in my tank with regular oil because it thins it out and it gives me more octane in the tank.

wally world special, 1oz/per gal
