Default RE: Substitute for Ether

Stewart,

Thanks for the suggestions. A few questions: what size engines are you running? My big engines (6.5cc, 4 cc) seem to react differently to a given mix than my small ones (1cc). The small ones are converted Norvels & mine seem to behave as Andy W. has described his: lots of ether to start. Does your 58% kerosene mix require anything special (high ether prime, for example) to run in your engines?

I still have not modified my olive oil yet as flying weather has been perfect & I have over a liter of fuel left. It's supposed to rain tomorrow, so I should get to it then.
