While reading various posts related to the Sohn Adapter, someone metioned something in one of them that made me wonder, and I don't think I saw it answered clearly, so if it has been and I just missed it, I apoligise in advance for creating a pointless thread.

I honestly feel like an idiot for not finding out about this mod earlier, it really seems ideal, and for someone who lves in a coutry where it never really gets cold, it really seems like a win win.

One question I do have is this. Seening how you can use 2-stoke oil which burns must better that the 4-stroke oil, I remember seeing someone posting a pic where the outter parts of the engine where spotless but the inner parts where a mess because the oil never made it that far before burning. This makes sense in my mind as oil that resists, at least patially to burning, will reach deeper (hint hint wink wink). So my question is this, if you use the Sohn adapter and 2-stroke oil, do you absolutely must increase the oil pumped into the engine for burning? Is this only achieved with an AP? People who do not have access to one, should they avoid this mod?

 

no.

 

2 stroke oil is designed to lubricate as it burns so I don't see that being an issue with a quality performance 2 stroke. You really don't even have to use 2 stroke, you could use regular oil. The main advantage of the sohn is that clean oil is what is being injected.

If you have the latest recall flash I wouldn't worry about the OMP output. A high quality 2 stroke (not jo schmo's no name lawnmower brand) that is designed to withstand the high heat in a rotary's combustion process should have no trouble providing enough lubrication at factory OMP spec settings. Use Idemitsu and you won't have to worry about your oil.
