By tank I'm assuming you mean fuel tank: NO, you only need oil in your tank if your oil metering pump is no longer functional (ie. you've installed a Haltech).

If you ARE no longer running the OMP, get a good 2 stroke oil and mix about 150:1. I run Swepco 2 stroke oil at about 150:1, this is roughly what the OMP meters the oil at full throttle (if I remember correctly).

I'm not familiar with the Motec, not sure if it runs your oil metering pump. If it doesn't, 150:1 means 150 parts fuel for 1 part oil (ie. 76 liters of gas, @500 ml of oil).

I'm a firm believer that all rotaries should run premix, especially if you have 3mm seals.
