Add oil to the fuel (50:1 - 87 or 89 US Octane gasoline to TC-W3 oil).

Run with both premix and oil tank until you are confident that premix has reached the fuel pump.

Cut and plug the oil line - must be airtight.

Disconnect the wiring from the oil tank.

Disconnect the wiring harness from the fuel pump.

After doing this, I was careless and the 2 wires going to oil tank crossed. The warning horn sounded to inform me. This is corrected now. Will there be any other repercussions such as kill switch issues because she didn't want to start after this (maybe flooded ???) ?

There should not be.

You should seal the ends of the VRO amphenol plug so that it can be reused later if desired and to keep them clean.

You should test your overheat alarm wiring by grounding the control ends of the tan wires at the cylinder heads to be sure that the circuit is intact. The ignition switch must be in the run position to test.

Not sure I explained correctly. The 2 (disconnected)wires that go FROM OIL TANK TO ENGINE, ends were open and contacted each other while engine was running for a second or so causing the horn to go off. I already had disconnected the amphenol (black, gray and tan) fron fuel pump. Could this affect kill switch or a fuse ?
