Pre-mix question

[RogerS]

i may go to pre-mix
But I dont know yet how the rotary valve will get lubrication when you convert to pre-mix,
i know pistons and rings gets from the gas and oil... but lower case how oil can get there after removing the oil injection pump!
Can you explain?

I’ve wondered this myself. After doing a lot of research I decided to leave mine as is the way it comes factory. reason being is our boat is kept at our lake house and it seams they smoke a lot with full premixed gas, I’m not crazy about looking like a smoke cloud going across the lake lol. Just as a Precautionary I do put very little oil in my fuel roughly 100:1 mix.judging from the performance of the boat and burn color of the plug it loves it lol. This is only my opinion, your prolly going to get a lot of diff takes on it.

There is no good reason to go premix on these and you will save a ton in oil.
