I know they need oil in the gas as they are currently designed. But is there a mechanical reason making it impossible for them to have a separate oil tank like a 4 stroke? Can't the fuel be supercharged in from a different tube, leaving the crank case gasoline free?
And how much skill and tools would I need to do some major modifications to a 2 cycle engine, such as re-routing all kinds of gas flows, adding oil reservoires, and changing the shape of the seals? I got some ideas and this sounds to me like a lot of fun. I'd buy a 50 cc engine cheap and work on it, but just wondering what I'm getting myself into.
