doesn't the injection vary the oil amount depending on engine speed? if i pre mix, the amount of oil being burnt is always the same ????

Yeah, but a lil' smoke is better than a big BOOM!!...a tip to reduce smoke when idling/trolling is to tilt your motor up a bit so the spark-plug end of the cylinders are a lil' above horizontal...that way unburnt oil runs back into the crankcase and doesn't build up at the plug end causing excess smoke and tendency to foul plugs...this really works and like anything else, once you get in the habit of it, it comes automatically...I did it for YEARS w/my old Rude...
Good luck either way you decide, but long ago, I decided if I'm runnin' a two-stroke NOT under warranty, the auto-oiler's GOTTA GO!!...my outboard tech said it's the best thing I could done at the time...
