I fly airplanes and helis too, for that i mix 18% oil with 20% nitro. But 11% for trucks is'nt it very low? Will the engine not heat up?
Airplane fuel uses a lot more oil than truck fuel. This is because airplanes are meant to be run at full throttle for long periods of time, where as trucks go from high throttle to low throttle all the time. 11% oil is normal for truck fuel. And usually 20% - 30% nitromethane and the rest methanol.
