Might have a chat with you bundybear next time at the track. Didn't realise you mixed your own...... .
Always a touchy subject, some people prefer to mix own fuel others don't and prefer pre-mixed.
http://www.rcfuelsupplies.com.au/ at Loganholme is a good start for Nitro and Methanol. Should be a bit of info on here and AusRC about different oils people use. I know Greg uses Klotz, but its always a bit of trial and error.
We had issues in the early stages of rust in the bearings due to a lack of engine maintenance on our part. We now run fuel out of engine, use ARO and then the next day pull it down and clean it out with Carby cleaner and then rebuild and re-oil.
