Thats the fuel I use and I love it. Its got a little more oil (11%) than most race fuels but still delivers great performance. For the V-Spec I prefer the P3 plug in most cases. The P4 and P6 plugs are a little colder you might be able to tune a little more top end using them but your going to lose the idle all day quallity the P3 gives you.

P3 or an OD97T

I would stick with either the OS P3 or the OD97T as for fuel O'Donell, Werks and Sidewinder are all good. But I would recommend going with one that easily obtainable at your local track or other tracks you visit.

Another vote for either the O.S. P3 or O'Donnell 97T. I just tried a 97T after using P3s up to that point, and the plug worked great. Supposed to be more durable than the P3 as well. We'll see what happens if I run out of fuel on the throttle next time. I usually smoke P3s when I run out of fuel, which prompted me to try the 97T.

Anyone know if you can run standard RB glow plugs in standard button novarossi engines?

thanks guys. do you guys put another extra head shim on the o.s. v-spec when you switch from 20% to 30%?

the rule of thumb is add one shim for every 10% more nitro mix.

BUT.... motor dependant, others have just went to 30%, re richen the needles and re run the breakin period for 2 or 3 tanks of fuel. then re tune to suit.

OS P3, OS P4, or OD97T plug. I am currently using the OD97T's in my V spec.

Personally,I am running Byron's. That is strictly based on cost for me though. I get it cheaper than retail because I work in a hobby shop and it doesn't sell what I want to run. If I was paying full price for my fuel and it was more readily available locally, I'd still be running Werks fuel.

i also dont know if i need a new plug or not, i have a 28cxp motor in my buggy, i used to have it on 16% but then had it re-tuned on 20% they did not replace the plug, and i havent tuned it right yet, what plug should be in it..

The V-Spec is shimmed for 30% fuel out of the box. You can add the included shim for the break-in period to help reduce wear on the conrod, but once break in is done, take the shim out and go nuts!
