Default Adding Oil to Nitro

My engine needs an oil content of at least 16%, the fuel i have(byrons Originals race 20%) only has a content of 12%, so i bought some synthetic oil(SIG racing oil) but its for planes, so would it be OK to add it to my fuel, and also how much should i add(ml,oz)

THANKS

The only difference in rc car fuels from planes is less oil content. Funny how they charge more for it and give you less.
