My 96 gti goes through about a tank of oil every two tank fulls of gas.. Seems like allot, my 95 xp dosen't use near that much. It's not smoking much at all and isn't hard to start.

What if the oil pump was wide open 24/7?

Yeah, it's crazy. But it doesn't smoke. Just went out and filled it up. No leaks that I can find. I'm going to keep a good eye on it over this next week. Plugs look fine as well. I don't get it.

at 40:1... you would burn a quart per 10 gal of fuel. Also... it would smoke BAD at idle.... and probably load up a little.

ya thats crazy, 1 gallon should last you at LEAST 50 gallons of gas at a bare minimum, and thats actually a real conservative number, the last time I wasn't premixed was 2009, but i had a 1 1/4 gallon tank and it took forEVER to run low on Oil, 5-6 long rides, and a good 60-70 gallons of fuel, and then I was just topping it off, it wasn't empty
how much does it smoke when you start it on the trailer ?
are you sure you don't have a ton of oil/buildup, residue in the bottom of the hull ?
and if I may back up before we go forward, is this approximately a Gallon sized tank ? and what is the size of your gas tank.
ie: i'd like to have an idea of actual numbers, gallon of oil = how many gallons of gas...
