Status: offline 		My club purchases Red max 10% fuel in bulk gallons. It has 19% synthetic oilcontent. Most guys add a couple ounces of castor / klotz BeNol. From what I see out there most fuel for sport airplanes is 18% oil content and 20% or 1/5 of the 18% is castor. This means that there is 4-5 oz. of castor in most blends. Is 2 oz. per gallon added to the synthetic content of 19% ok? Is it too much total oil content? Is it enough castor. I want to use it in .25 to .46 2 stroke glow engines as well as .91 saito four stroke.

You will be short on the avg. castor percentage.
Just don't run it too lean and you will be fine.

Some folks don't use any castor.
