Default Fuel to use for YS140FZ

Hi,

I have planned to install an YS140FZ in a old timer (Stampe SV4) to have more power than my OS 120P, but I read that these engines requires more nitro that I use. I currently use a 10% nitro with 17% oil. Will this be a problem for a YS140FZ or not ?

YS recommend a 20/20 blend (for competition I assume).

Thanks,

It will run, but you will sacrifice idle and transition with lower than 20% nitro, especially in cold weather.
