Default RE: gas fuel with glo plug no ignition


Even if the cost of acohol was less ....the fact is you need twice as mutch to make the same flight.
Don't forget about the power from the same engine displacement. 100cc engine running on methanol will give you probably the same power as 150cc running on gasoline. So the mileage is not exactly 2:1 but maybe something like 3:2.
Yes, at the pump methanol costs just a bit less then gasoline, so it is not cheapper running yet and I hope we will not go that way (I drive 75 a day just to get to work and my truck aint run on methanol).[:@]

I never owned a DA 150. Too much$$$ for my type of fun.
