Use the cheapest 2 stroke you can find. I use Walmart Brand 2 stroke in my FD...no issues. Inevitably others will feel you have to use the highest priced secret sauce you can find...so your decision.

As to the amount...you can find pages of people arguing about this if you search. If you have your MOP you should be fine with a 1/2 oz per gallon of gas. Dump it straight into your gas tank when it is low and fill up on top of it to mix.

^ Bingo.


This is a pretty insightful premix thread. -> https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.ph...ight=Premixing

From what I've read...
- Use TCW-3 two stroke oil. (Synthetic two stroke costs more.)
- Anywhere from 0.5oz to 1oz oil, per gallon of gas.
- Add the oil first. Then pump gas.


No need to change your fuel pump. Just use a funnel and shot glass when premixing.
