Default RE: YS-170CDI Flight Report

That is one thing a lot of people don't realize is that engines run cooler on higher nitro. If you have an engine that is marginally overheating with 10% nitro, you can increase the Nitro to 20% and it will make the engine run cooler. That is because it lowers the flash point and thus the fuel burns at a lower temp.

This also can help for people who live in very warm climates...
