People premixing w/o MOP... how many miles on your engine, who has the highest?
Who's got the most miles on their rotary using premix w/o MOP? Obviously it's ok to run premix without the MOP, BUT... does a rotary last as long on premix (assuming proper mix ratios are used) as one using MOP method?
P.S. : I realize that there are millions of factors that affect how long an engine will last, I'm simply trying to get an idea of what other people are seeing (mileage wise).
5,235 miles here

1500 on a reman, running no omp, and premixing.
A motor will last much longer on premix than omp.
I've seen omp motors apart they only lube 1/4 of the apex seal.
That's why I went premix even though its a hassle sometimes.
