H2O, You may reuse your current OMS pump, with premix, by capping the oil intake, and disconnecting the wiring harness.

A single lift pump is inadequate for your motor, You would require two lift pumps in tandem with large capacity such as the OEM # 0438559 + 393870.

If the gasoline side of your OMS pump is still good, you should consider the advice of Chris1956. Also, if it is faulty, the gasoline side of your pump can be rebuilt with a kit for less than $100. to use for premix only.

The VRO, VRO2 or OMS systems are all mechanical. The only thing electric is the warning system.
