go to electric pump and premix, that engine will last a long long time.

Thanks for the input. I am thinking of just doing the electric fuel pump system. And doing away with the VRO.

you will be miles ahead with the electric pump, works great and is an easy install.

I premix now and add about a gal. worth of extra oil per tank (27 gal) and don't worry about fuel at all now.
