Go-Tech Engines Thread
Please lets not go there !
There are other good threads on RC tech that started out well, then once fuel is mentioned it turned into a pissing contest.
Lets just keep it GO related. PPPPLLLEEEAAASSSEEE.

Go T3 or T4, OSP3 or Odonnell 97T.
As for fuel, it's best to run something that doesnt have parafin wax as a lubricant. No fuel manufacturer will outright say it, but if you've got black deposits on your piston head and/or crank, odds are you're running really rich or your fuel has wax as a lubricant.
Fuels from the major brands will typically have the best blends, but look at signatures around here and find out what's in your local shop. If you try a fuel and have trouble tuning, switch to another.
