Default Difference between Gas and Glow engines performance wise
I am considering getting a gas engine- either Fuji or Zenoah. I wanted to know, what is the difference between a glow engine and a gas engine (other than the fuel of course). For an example, lets take

Glow: 120AX or 140RX
Gas:ZENOAH G26 Air Engine
Fuji Imvac BT-24EI 24cc 1.5ci Gas
Fuji Imvac BT-24A 23.9cc Gas

I have exclusively flown glow so far. So, what is the fuel additive to gas? You know, like we add castor or synthetic lube to glow fuel... Sorry if I am a bit rough around the edges but I have no idea regarding gas engines and what fuels and additives they use, so I need a "technology primer"
