The mixture is likely the same as most model diesel fuel. Kerosene, castor and ether.  For $160, I think I should go into business.  I have a turret lathe and could make the time for that.  The OS .10 conversion looks interesting.  Around here everyone is going electric for the trucks and buggies at the local track.  They say it is faster and easier.  Things are changing.  I wouldn't have believed anything would be faster than a Novarossi 20 years ago.
