I think posting your rpm figures for a few props will give others a chance to compare notes? I got an engine from a friend that came with an rpm figure for a given fuel and prop. I mixed my own fuel to my own specs and got identical rpm initially, and better afterward with some engine modifications. So either fuel composition is not dramatically different or power doesn’t vary much from one fuel to another. Diesel fuel is definitely a different animal compared to glow fuel.
