Default from 10% nitro to 15%, break in again?

The manual is a bit vague on this.

I have two engines: .46 FX and .91 Surpass II.

Same question for both.

Thanks,
Shane

Shane,

Changing between 10% nitro fuel and 15% won't hurt a thing. It's done all the time. As long as the engine doesn't go too lean, you'll be fine. Just remember that the needle does change when you change fuels.

Follow on Bill:

I have a .46 FX and a .91 Surpass II

Both newly broken in with Omega 10%

I would like to run both engines with the same fuel.
-probably Omega 15% and stick with that for good.

But I noticed that Morgan fuel also sells a "4 stroke"
fuel.

Thoughts?
