Engines are factory set for 25% for .21 and 16% for .12

Doesn't mean you can't do things different, but since you're not into fuel stuff...just don't !

I make my own fuel for on road use with 8% oil: 5% synt + 3% castor. But if you ask a thousand people you'll get two thousand different blends !

Without a solid experience I'd discourage you to make your own fuel. Just buy a bottle of a good brand fuel, and let your knowledge start from there.
