Default Smoke pump?

Will these move enough oil to be worthwhile?

Yes, it should. A general rule of thumb is that a smoke system will use about the same amount of smoke fluid to make good smoke as the engine consumes in fuel. There is another neat little pump by Walbro called "WIP". Personally, I make smoke pumps out of old Walbro carbs that I cut in half....

It would be interesting to try smoke on that 65cc Four Mix of yours. A properly tuned two stroke runs from 1000 to 1200 degrees exhaust gas temperature, with most running slightly rich and having an EGT of 1000. The four stroke engines generally run 1300 to 1400 degrees. The hotter exhaust should make better smoke.
