Default Diluting Pre-mixed fuel....

So I have an ASP red-head 1.08. From everything I'm reading, I need less than 5% nitro fuel. The local shops aren't carrying anything less than 10% I'm not into mixing my own, not to say that I wouldn't be down the road... but I would like to be able to run this motor up this weekend.

My question is can I dilute pre-mixed fuel do bring it down to &lt;5% nitro? If I get a heavier oil mix can I just add some methanol to it (some math would be involved) and dilute? I already have a gallon of 15%, and I can go buy 10%, not nothing less.<br type="_moz" />
