RE: Will a Revo 3.3 run using Fuel with zero % Nitromethane???
Some of you guys really need to pay more attention to the original post before you reply. The man is in Nigeria.
He wants to know if he can run without nitro, not where you can get nitro at if your in the US.
Personally I don't know if you can run without nitro. It provides a lot of the oxygen needed for proper combustion with the port timing in these things. If I were in your shoes, and absolutely could not get nitro, I would either sell the MT before you run it, or try for a return, then pick up a gas/petrol based RC; or if that isn't an option I would would go for it. I am no expert but just guessing I would say you may need to lean the carb drastically to compensate for the lack of O2 that the nitromethane normally provides (less O2 provided in the fuel means you need to have less fuel per a given quantity of O@ brought in from the atmosphere). As already stated, you may want to try to run without or with less head shims, and you may need to try different temp glow plugs to get everythign just right. Again, I repeat, I am just guessing... Good luck.
