This is one problem of the main problems...Mazda has tried the band-aid fix and has tried re-calibrating the PCM a few times but that only helps for so long. I swear by premixing I have extended the life on the re-built motor I have in the car now. Hopefully, once the new motor is released the OMP problem will be fixed...I do know they are now gonna use 3 oil injectors per rotor instead of the 2 we currently have so that should be a huge improvement!
