Status: offline 		What is the correct way to mix my fuel ratio? The local shop owner says its a ratio of oil, and nitro to the meth. Example (100 oz. meth, 15 oz. nitro, 18 oz oil) for a 15%mix with 18% oil.

I thought it was a percentage of the total content. Example (67oz. meth, 15 oz nitro, 18 oz. oil ). For the same blend.

Please let me know what you think

Status: online 		If you look closely at the arithmetic of the example you quoted you will see its flaw. Your example would yield a total of 133 oz fluid. 15 oz of this would be Nitro. 15 oz in 133oz is not 15%.
