    1. Wildcat 2&amp;4 Cycle 10% Nitro
    2. Cool Power Super T
    3. Cool Power 15% Total Synthetic
    4. Omega 15% Castor/ Synthetic
    <o></o>Thanks.

    In the 4 strokes I would opt for a fuel with a high percentage or 100% synthetic.. Nitro content &gt;10% would be advised for easier tuning and reliable running.

    In th 2 strokes, a fuel with a small percentage of castor or again, 100% high quality synthetic would be beneficial.

    Of the fuels you currentlyhave in your stock, I'd opt for the Omega 15% Castor /synthetic.

    If you can cope with 2 fuesl, then keep the Coolpower for the 4 strokes and the Omega for the 2strokes. Eitehr one of these will work just fine in your engine. Select the Nitro content for smooth 4 stroke running and be done with it.

    What I would keep in stock is a range of plugs..
