Status: offline 		I am using Byron's 10% nitro, 16% oil to break in an O.S. BGX 3500 engine that I would like to bring up to 20% oil. What brand castor oil should I use to do this and how much should I add ? This is my first experience adding castor oil to fuel, also where would I buy castor oil. Thanks in advance, Cary.

Status: offline 		Add 6.4 oz. castor to a gallon of 16% fuel to raise the oil content to 20%. Doing so will lower the nitro to 9.5%. As to where to get castor, try your LHS. I think Morgan Fuels also sells castor, as does Klotz. Your local speed shop or motor cycle shop probably sells Klotz products. The Klotz racing castor called BeNol. I believe the castor in Wildcat fuel is Klotz Benol.
