Mazda Zoom Cleaner question

Im about to cleaner my engine using Mazda's Zoom Engine Cleaner. Mazda's TBS service instructs you to increase the OMP pressure to achieve extra lubrication. I'm doing this myself with an assistant, how can I add extra lubrication? I already use premix. Do I just add more premix before applying cleaner or can I inject the premix the same way I do the cleaner?

I notice in other posts you say you have an 04 RX-8 with a Series II Engine..??

I am interested to know how and why you think you have a Series II engine (2009~)?

What did the installer do with the Extra 2 Nozzles to supply Oil to them?
What did they do with the OCV Oil Control Valve and it's electric operation?
Did you change your engines ECU (PCM) and all associated Wiring Looms?

Are you sure you have a Series II Engine in an 04?

I think I have a S2 because I have n S2 otherwise why would I have hoses running to my intake manifold and not nipple plugs, the original S1 engine required replacement n it got replaced with a S2 renesis some of the hoses were reused but otherwise it's a new engine. My question still stands how can I provide extra lubrication before starting my engine after cleaning.

You can not 'Simply' Replace an S1 Engine With a S2...you have a 2004 Series 1 with a re-man engine.

Pre-Mix normally goes in Fuel..

And yes "if "i you want you can add 2 Stroke Oil (neat) into engine for "extra" lubrication, But I fail to see why.

Just follow the TSB..they are in this section of Forum.

Thread move to correct forum..

In the TSB it states to increase your OMP pressure to insert more oil to add extra lube but this isn't possible for me so I am seeking another method by add 2 stroke into the same ports I apply the cleaner hence my ? of adding the oil in the same ports and if that will work

^ -- I see more re-man's in your future

I'd like to see pics of this "New" engine just to stop all this nonsense with your s2 claims.

you cannot "think", you DO NOT have an S2 engine. certain things are different which makes installing it in earlier system impossible WITHOUT heavily modify/customize certain items.

You can't, you don't have access to WDS so you will not be able to do that. u can have 2 cups of 2 stroke and keep connect it to the nipper for it to suck it in. but it's really not needed if you premix it in your gas before hand.
