By accident I purchased a gallon of Wildcat Heli. fuel, 15% for my .46 glow engine. Without knowing my mistake I fueled up and went flying. The engine didn't seem to want to 'come up to speed'. Tried tuning the needle, nothing helped...went home....
Now that I've figured out the gallon was for Heli's...does anyone know if I've damaged the engine, can I mix 50/50 with glow fuel and be ok or just trash the gallon and forget I spent $20 for it?
Any advice would be appreciated...

According to the Wildcat web site there's absolutely no difference between the heli and normal 2 stroke fuels (none that I can see anyway). Both use 18% all synthetic oil. As for why they're packaged differently I guess you'd have to ask their marketing department.
