Thank you guys, yes the yellow bottles of heat are methanol, but that is not a cost effective way to buy it.. I have a lineup on free methanol from a buddy that races modifieds. I've already ran the calculations. Between a gallon of new nitro fuel, free methanol, and a quart of klotz oil I will be able to mix up 4 gallons for a about 34$.. Or 8.50$ a gallon. I Will probably give the big cat a try. It's already mounted Nicely and setup. I ticked it over with a squirt of fuel in the carb and it popped right off. Maybe I wil have some luck.. And now that I received a lot of info on glow plugs and fuel. I might have success
