Hi Greg,

Thanks for the link and,,,I did just that,,,, called Klotz. Toll free of course, and what a great company. No wonder,, John Klotz is a modeller. I spoke with Jerrod, an RC car guy. He was right friendly and informative. Lacking the tech knowledge, I only caught a small gist of much of it but he wasn't surprised that kero blends with Benol. Not that it was intended to do that but he explained that it's the waxes and soaps and the like in castor that prevents blending. Benol is so very much de-gummed and refined, likely it takes it just there where it WILL blend with kero as long as the temperature is reasonable.

We had a great talk about oils, blends and RATIOS. The link you provided gave specs on using Benol. Note they call for a 20 to 30 to one mix. WHAT?? That's like 5%. Even with average nitro, not more than 20% or so, they had found that very high percentages of Benol were not required. I was sceptical and still am but I DO see another experiment coming. [X(]

Will try a 5% Benol, all methanol mix in the near future on one of my glow Norvels. I WILL tear down the engine to see what broke. [:@] And yes, I have lots of spare parts.

About tiny bubbles. A very careful inspection of my mix shows that it completely dissolved. I did mention the mix as being cloudy at some unspecified temperature and that may have been the droplets in suspension but a good shake and everything went clear and remained that way for over 8 hours at 75 to 80F.

In any event, I'm also going to make up a mix of 5% oil and 93% kero with 2% Amsoil. And test it, just as soon as it stops raining. []
