kawasaki Oil & Pump ?

[magnoman]

I just bought a 2000 1100 zx. I keep hearing about people premixing oil 7 getting away from the pump? Is this something to be concerned about.
Oil, i use a full synthetic in my 225 yamaha outboard runs very clean. would this be good for the PWC or just stay with the kawai Oil?

Synthetic Oil Would Be Good In The 1100. You Do Not Have To Use The Kawasaki Brand. As Far As The Oil Pump It Is A Personal Preferance. If You Do Not Mind The Premix Method Then It Is Safer. There Is No Warning If The Oil Pump Fails And It Only Takes A Very Short Time Do Do Major Engine Damage When And If It Does Quit. Some Pumps Last For The Entire Life Of The Engine And I Have Seen Them Fail Much Sooner. Most Of The Time It Is A Loose Or Broken Oil Line That Does A Motor In. The Pumps Themselves Rarely Fail But It Does Happen.
