Default RE: Substitute for Ether

Wow, That is a cool mix Andy. Your exhaust is as black as mine is running on my Black Brew mix.

I noticed as it got hot you had to back off on the compression which seems to be more the case with the non either mixes. The question is how does it run after a minuet of idling at that compression setting?

Are you doing the rod bushings yourself? Are you making them out of solid bushing stock on the lathe then reaming them to size after press fitting them in? How much of an interference fit are you doing for the press fit? Do they have an oiling hole?

I might try some Naptha for my winter mix. I'm really beggining to think that 20% oil is more than nessasary for my pump diesel mix.
