ok!

What do you guys think about this:

Ethanol - 70%
Benzene - 5%
Acetone - 5%
Synthetic Oil for 2-stroke engines - 10%
Ricin Oil - 10%
Other than the benzene it's worth a try because a few have reported good results using ethanol instead of methanol. Power will be down a little compared to methanol but fuel consumption will also be down.

Benzene is carcinogenic which makes me think back to the '60s when I used to pour a gallon of it into 10 gallons of petrol for my TR3A.
