Heh I was talking Old Not antique
I don't know why he said that. Many C/L engines are still made with cast iron piston and steel sleeves. Some R/C engines also. But they were more commen back a few years, and he did say he had some old C/L planes.
I myself dont own anything at all with a steel bore and cast iron piston. heh I didnt think anyone even produced engines anymore with cast iron pistons and steel bores in them.
I know theres still some ringed stuff out there but thats generally bigger engines.
So when it was made mention of the first thing I thought of was Vintage Antique engines. That is why I made the statement above.

I also recomended he listened to the others.

I have no problems with synthetics I actualy like them. I add castor where I see fit. Some people swear by castor. I have found I can run my engines out of one jug of fuel after they are broke in and seasoned a lil.. Im not about to go out and purchase 6 diffrent fuels for all the engines I have.

I do have a couple older fox .15's I got in a trade. Ive never had one of them apart. Are they steel bore and cast iron piston? They have the angled plug in them. Oh and they are Antique to me also
