No comparison. The Pennzoil burns nice and clean. Lawnboy leaves a sticky sludge all over your plane that is a bugger to clean. I order mine by the case here:

Edit:

This page shows what the new bottles look like. They read Outdoor Multipurpose for Aircooled engines. It is the same as the old oil, but with a new label. The 8 oz bottle are just right for mixing up 2 gallons at 32 to 1. You can click on the picture of the bottle to zoom in on it.

LIfer, Troybuiltmodels has what they call a quiet beauty muffler for the g62.  I haven't tried one so I can't say how quiet it is.  I do have a g62 that I started for the first time the other day and it fired right up and idled beautifully.  It will eventually be going in a warbird after I fly it on my Big Bee for awhile.  I am hoping to get a lightweight 50cc engine pretty soon for a cap 232 I am putting together.  DL seems like it is getting most of the votes around here, but I have yet to see one in the flesh.  I'm going to a couple of big bird fly ins later this month and hope to see one in action.

I bought a DLE 111 today from a reputable Chinese dealer that has very good feedback on Ebay....Price I paid was $530 + $44.99 for DHL shipping...Total of $574.99 shipped to my door...I should see the engine in 3 to 5 working days....I would have bought from a USA dealer but after reading about some dealers balking at warranty repairs I figured what's the point and saved myself some bucks...

That's why you go to Valley View R/C or Wild Hare R/C. Both take care of their customers.

I've owned DL engines before (All 50cc) and all of them ran perfect out of the box!!!...(All were purchased through US dealers)....You're talking to an ex racer and automobile restorer that cantake apart a car and put itback together with my eyes closed...Using my toes!!..Point being that I workon my own equipment and additionally I learned how to repair small engines while working with a landscaping/lawn care company when going through college...Just last week I repairedthree chain saws and a leaf blower for fellow co-workers...If I need work doneto this engine I'll orderthe parts and work on it myself...However, if this engine runs as well as my previous DL's, I won't need any warranty work!!!

Then I have orderen my first DL. The 111.
Began buying DA, then discovered the Mokies are really reliable and cheaper. Then again I tried two MVVS`es, added tunedpipes and even the tiny MVVS 35ccm is pretty close to a DA50 in power! It revs 7400RPM with a 20x10 propeller, still running 1:30 oil and have ran less than 6 litres of gas through it. I am impressed.
So then it is time to try a real cheapie. The DL111 will get two Krumscheid tunedpipes and headers and will serve in one of my TUGs. I am curious to see if the DL works or not Hope the DL111 in my TUG will be able to tow 50 pound gliders without problems... Just a pity DL don`t offer anyother headers andpipes than the lousy loudpitts-mufflers.

Can anyone tell me what the plug gap should be on NGK CM-6 plugs for my new DLE 111. It don"t want to run on both cylinders all the time with those cheap looking china plugs that it came with.

Yep. Mine came out of the box set to .016. Iset mine to 018. Worked great.

cm6 plugs had a night and day difference on the way it ran. I flew the plane and the engine ran great atleast for that one flight. I think it will be a good engine.

Hi
i am just installing a 111 in my 1/3 scale clipped cub. can anyone tell me if a 3amp ubec is sufficent to power the ignition ?

I am planing on using a 1800 mah lippo 3 cell, cut down to 2 cells, this has worked really well with my dl 50, but I cannot rememberwere the balance leads should be connected ?

dont use those chinese plugs[&o]

The common should come from where the two cells are soldered together. The + and - come from the other end that is not soldered together.

Hiya DL111 owners!

Question... How much space does your engine have between the Prop drive flange and the Engine case? Mine is over 1/8 inch....

Thanks,

Both of mine are the same. It's normal, my sensor just reaches the far edge of the magnet. Yours might be a hair more than mine but not much if it is.
Here is a link to a drawing of the 111.

Thanks for the confirmation Super 8.

I noticed that the trigger magnet was drilled and install very close to the edge of the prop drive so I thought it was ok... Just nice to know it is also normal.. :-)

Here is what it is mounted on!

If you run out of room in there, the dining room table works great too.
