shipping to Philly will be no more then $20 a case if you order from EBMods, or Lucky 7 RC. We're happy you decided to get a JS. :)

I am leaning towards 25% just because some of the other engines that I have. I don't want to have 20% in one, 25% in another and 30% in something else. Will the JS full mod disagree with 25%? 25 is a good middle ground for everything I have. Let me know what you guys think.

The JS comes shimmed for 25% - 30% nitro.

you should let Alan and Mike from Hobby Hut know you want to buy EBMods fuel. They can order it for you too.

25% nitro will work out just fine. Due to Danish legislation, 25% is all we're allowed to race here. As mentioned already, the engine is set up to use 25-30% so you don't have to touch anything. The lower nitro content might make it necessary to use a hotter plug (thank you JPalessi).

just wanted to make sure i'm right. tune this engine from the high speed needle first then the bottom, tuning the bottom so the idle stays steady and doesn't drop, while not touching the idle screw right???;) what temps should i be looking for?

being that your changing fuel you should idle a tank before race tuning.

no prob! I've been running the 8mm w/ a 2041 and have been getting over 10mins everywhere. :D I would try them all and see what fits your driving/car the best.
