RE: Two and Four Stroke Fuel
UM...I know that some fuel is labeled '4-stroke' and some is labeled '2-stroke' but for glow engines, all there is is GLOW fuel with differing percentages and mixes of castor, synthetic lubes, nitromethane and alcohol.
Look at the threads regarding making your own glow fuel and you will see that it's more simple than you may think. I spent some time researching this when I lost my 'cheap' fuel supply. Turns out it would cost me almost as much to make it as it does to buy it.
The most expensive part of glow fuel is shipping and environmental/HS regulations and fees, (multiply that by 3 for individual ingredients).
I'm looking for my first gasser.
