Status: offline 		Does anyone know where to find the specs os K&B 500 model fuel. I am a U.S. soldier stationed in South Korea and I do not have access to the American fuel I am familiar with. Does anyone know the nitro content, oil content, and type of oil used in K&B 500? Any info would be appreciated. I have been using it in my 1/8 scale buggy, but I think it is aviation fuel. Seems to work okay, but I would like to know what im using

I am sure on the nitro, not as sure on the oil...

Status: offline 		wow, only 12.5% nitro, huh? I woulda guessed it had more than that. Thats okay, though, for now. what I really need to know about is the oil, though. I know it is intended for aviation use, so I want to be sure that I am not damaging my hotter-running buggy engine due to lack of lube. The 12.5% nitro explains why I had suck a large power increase with my friend's 25% race blend fuel!! It was a noticable difference.
