Status: offline 		I use to make my own model airplane fuel and it looks like I'm going to have to start doing it again. There are a bunch of new things though that I'd like to figure out. When I was doing this, there was castor oil, methanol and Nitro...thats it. However, now there are lots of new things I need to figure out.

1. What is Fuel Fragrance and do I need it?
2. What kind of secondary "synthetic" lubricant should I be using. I'm use to 100% castro....but it seems most folks are using Synth + Castro mixed. I see Klotz recommended the most...is that the best? Also there are several kinds. World Wide sells something called World Wide Lubricant sold by World Wide Racing fuels? Is this just Klotz?
3. Power additives. WorldWide also sells a power additive called Super Blue 007....should I be using this in a day-to-day model fuel?
4. Propylene Oxide...is that something I should be mixing in as well? Is the same thing as Super Blue 007?

Status: offline 		Ok, I found the answer to the Fuel Fragrance. Its a cherry smelling stuff you add to the fuel so it doesn't stick. Gosh NO! I love the smell of Nitro in the morning.

Maybe I should move this under the Fuel FAQs?
