Status: offline 		In another post, someone made reference to mixing cool power 15% and 30% for his Saito 4 stokes. I am am interested in doing this for economy reasons. My Saitos burn 15% OK, but 3d performance is much better on 30%. I am assuming an equal mix will yield 22.5% nitro. My main question regards the viscosity of the oil between the two types. Morgan lists the 30% heli fuel as "22% Lower viscosity Lube" and the 15% as "17% High Viscosity Lube". Both fuels are synthetic, but will the viscosity diffs cause a problem?

Thanks,
