Hmm well..I prefer the (i think Reagan?) quote that says "trust, but verify".
I've replaced both fuel/vro pumps. These are the new 4-wire pumps with constant 50:1 w/Systemcheck no oil flow and low oil alarms. Removed and cleaned each tank and installed new inlet filters. Replaced primer bulbs and lined, primed and marked each tank. So far it seems each engine uses nearly the exact same amount of oil.
^Said VRO maintenance was not cheap..but neither is peace of mind. Having redone the systems myself...I expect them to work perfectly!

As is apparent by craigslist searching..the usual death of 2-stroke OBs are infrequent use leading to carb or cylinder gunk leading to 1 or 2 cylinder death. So this will be an "unofficial" vro test ;)
