This google c**p doesnt let me reply to my old post so I am quoting it
below.

My follow up question is (Karen?):

How does the oil go in the cylinders? When its pumped to the bearings
doesnt it more or less get splashed around while the rods/crank move?
Then wouldnt it end up on the crankcase walls and simply run down and
pool up somewhere?

To get burned it would have to be "misted" so it can get sucked into
the cylinders?

Whats happening in there?

Folks,

I was wondering where the oil goes that the DFI motor pumps to the
crankbearings. Does it accumulate in the crankcase and eventually
gets dragged in the cylinders and burned? Is this the oil the DFI
motor burns as it has no oil in the fuel itself? I couldnt find info
about this in my optimax shopmanual ..

Karen maybe you know this?

Yes; just as you know who says:-) it's supposed to be "burnt".
It is
injected in such small amounts at idle that it doesn't really go
anywhere at idle, till you rev up then any excess gets "transferred" &
probably some does actually get burnt.

However, because it's undiluted raw oil, a good part of it goes
straight out the exhaust port still as raw oil.

So when people comment about the absence of "smoke" from the
DFIs
that's true, because the oil isn't diluted with fuel.

You've probably noticed it's a bit oily around it's nether
regions:-)
