Also plenty of (gasoline) two-stroke engines use oil injection so you don't have to use premix, namely any machine where you'd typically get your fuel straight from the pump like a snowmobile or a dual sport motorcycle, back when those were still two-stroke.

I had a 1983 Yamaha DT-80 (little enduro dirt bike) that had an oil reservoir so you could use pump gas.



And there are 4-stroke engines, such as the Stihl 4-mix[0] that use fuel mixed with 2-stroke oil for fuel and lubrication.

Those are pretty nasty for bystanders though.
