All this talk of the oil injection reminded me of an experiment I ran
a few years back.  I was playing with water injection, and ended up
drilling a HOLLEY carburetor ventury and inserting a tube that feed
water from a tank (2 litter coke bottle).  I had machined a block of
aluminum to accept a standard HOLLEY jet.  To adjust the water, change
jets.  This metered water into the ventury of the carb and I guess
mixed well with the A/F mixture.  I got bored with it and sold the
car.  It would be the best of both worlds, separate oil tank, and no
pump or pressure lines.  Something to ponder.  You could add the oil
anywhere along the intake manifold as long as you weren't turbo'd.

That's a pretty good idea. I wonder if it would work with
a reasonable size ventury given the viscosity of two stroke
oil.?
