Oops, I think I may have worded it wrong. I thought the CoolPower FAI fuel had no nitromethane in it and believed it was just synthetic oil. I wasn't sure what it was and if I can use this synthetic oil in-place of 2-cycle oil. Sounds like there is nitromethane (how much nitro?) and definitely won't be using it.

CoolPower is Glow Fuel. AKA Methanol, also known as methyl alcohol. Gas is Gasoline. They are totally different. FAI fuel has 0% nitro, but is Methanol mixed with 17% oil.

We are taking running GAS engines with Unleaded Pump Gasoline with 2%-5% oil.

Gas engines burn less gasoline than nitro engines and is CHEAP compared to the cost of Methanol based fuels.... Hope this helps clarify things for you. Scoot
