Default RE: Engine compression


ORIGINAL: p40hawker

Being a beginner at this hobby, I ask the question. What is the difference between 2 cycle and 4 cycle fuel. I was told that 4 cycle has more oil in it. And that I could burn it in a 2 cycle engine. I then ask, what would be the benefit of using 4 cycle fuel in a 2 cycle engine. The answer was more compression and a cooler running engine. So this is what created my original question.
Ok who did you ask ? and who did the answer come from.

Fuel has gotten out of hand with this oil and that oil and this additive
In the ole days you could run any oil you wanted as long as it was Castor ...engines ran good and lasted a long time
