Welcome to the site!!

Center bearing on the Invader motor needs the oil pump to be there pumping oil. Oil pumps on these sleds are very reliable, why do you wish to pre mix?  Intruder motors are simpler to set up for pre mix.

I was just lookin to simple it up a little I noticed the cable for it was frayed so I was just gonna take it off and mix it but not a big deal I got it not running but its in super good shape I wanted to bring it back to life:)

Stick with the oil injection. new throttle cables are not hard to find, and pretty easy to adjust.

With the oil injection think of your snowmobile tank as a cash (oil or gas) reserve for your automobile.  Keep your tank full throughout the winter in case you get to ride some snow.  When you have a HOT date (low on cash/gas) and need to use your car syphon your Saki tank and take her out in your car.  With premix you are lucky to burn up the premix fuel in a lawnmower/blower or ice auger.

Simple is getting to use the dollars of excess fuel left at the end of winter in your auto.  The two stroke motor oil will still be good for years and years of storage.
