Everyone on the forum thats having trouble getting diesel fuel makes me feel guilty too. n the UK we don't have a problem getting diesel from LHS thanks to a company called
http://www.modeltechnics.com/. they also sell ether at £19.15 for 2.75L . I use a mix of 1/2 and 1/2 D1000 / D2000 with another 5% pharmo castor thrown in, this makes the mix approx 31% ether, 36% paraffin, 31% castor 2% IPN I call my mixture "D 1500+" [8D]
As for engines there is only 1 NATURAL choice....PAW .
Anyone know who "invented" the model diesel engine?
