help mixing fuel
 

a little while ago i did a search on here and found a list that has all the different brands of fuels and there oil contents.i've searched again now and just cant find it. i'd like it to have reference for mixing my own fuels. :D

can anyone help?

not sure what thread your talkin about but this link helped me get to grips with fuel blending.

cheers

Unless your a Chemist, I buy over the counter fuel.

why? its easy as to mix it yourself :)

Chin Luc mix his own fuel...... he mix Oldonel and Byron and he call it Olbyron.

The best fuel I ever ran was my own that I mixed, staight castor methenol and nitro but some one handed me the formula that would fit all of it in 128 oz. bottle, never had any tuneing issues ran perfectly. Sadly that was over 10 years ago, but if you dont have a problem getn any of the products, why not mix your own; real cost affective.

very funny :p

yeah using castor oil as the only lubricant in a fuel mix makes for a very cool running engine as it promotes cooling, but using synthetic lubricants protect the engine components from wear much better hence why most modern fuels are blends of both. If I could get a good supply of pure methanol and nitro I'd have a bash at mixing my own fuel. theres so much off the shelf nitro fuel that uses crap quality components.

Chin said not to tell anyone! That was his speed secret.:lol:

I hear the O'Byrons Chin Luc blend makes a fully modified JP look like a bone stock Force motor.:cry:

is that a .12 or .15 Force

REDHEAD Steve!!!:nod:

The best fuel I ever ran was the one I mixed myself. Total control of raw material quality.

Remeber that stuff Chuck? Nick and Terry loved it... :nod:

Yeah, it was good stuff ! :D


But then, You are a chemest, right? :)

I wonder if I can get some nitro on prescription :rolleyes: :D
