Items necessary for starting
TOOLS, ACCESSORIES, etc.
The following items are necessary for operating the
engine.
FUEL
Generally, it is suggested that the user selects a fuel
that is commercially available for model two-stroke
engines and contains 10-30% nitromethane.
As a starting point, we recommend a fuel containing
20% nitromethane, changing to a fuel containing more
nitro if necessary. When the brand of fuel is changed,
or the nitro content increased, it is advisable to repeat
the running-in procedure referred to in the RUNNING-
IN paragraphs.
Please note that with high-nitro fuels,
although power may be increased for
competition purposes, glowplug
elements do not last as long and
engine life will be shorter.

REMINDER!
Model engine fuel is poisonous. Do not
allow it to come into contact with the eyes
or mouth. Always store it in a clearly
marked container and out of the reach of
children.
!
Model engine fuel is also highly flammable.
Keep it away from open flame, excessive
heat, sources of sparks, or anything else
which might ignite it. Do not smoke or allow
anyone else to smoke, near to it.
