im running 16.66% castor (1 part castor to 5 Parts methanol or 21.33 oz to the gal if i remember correctly)
works great in my 2 strokes, my 4 strokes dont like it as much, castor gumbs it up easier since their are more moving parts
So that's 100% castor no synth? Seems many feel 100% castor is better for 2 strokes.
This isnt me talking above...quote thing wasnt working

imo yes it is, if you dont run your engines for a few weeks next time you fly your engine will be a little gumbed up but nothing a few min at full throttle wont solve
i can start all of my 2 strokes w/ one backflip and ive noticed my deadsticks are very few now (running 0% nitro and getting idles as low as 1600rpm (gms.47))
this could be due to a number of things (me getting better at tuneing for example) but i havnt had a engine overheat sinced i switched
my main reason for useing all castor is it is the cheapest oil around.....and protects your engine very well.
it does have its downsides like more goo on your plane, buy if you have to wipe your plane off anyways what does an extra 10 seconds mean to wipe "more goo" off.
