Default RE: DL-50 engine

Okay Geppino (BOUND 4 HELL),

I dumped my 50/60:1 gas into the gas tank in my van and mixed up a new batch of 80:1 (Amsoil Saber). Got in three flights today. No problems. Engine ran great. Checked temp immediately after each flight and the highest reading I could get pointing the meter at different spots on the engine head was about 170 degrees - about ten degrees cooler than before. One of my budies at work just broke in his new DL and is runnng 80:1 as well.

Sounds great!
