Fuel for G-62
#4
![Default](https://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I need help along this line. I have a G-45
& a Homelite 25 conversion. I have not flown
either in about two years. I was told then to
run at least 1 gallon of petrol based oil mix
then switch to the Amsoil, which is synthetic.
Do I have this correct? If so, what brand of
the petrol based oil would you recommend?
I remember buying some oil at a cycle shop,
but of course, I can't find it now.
Also, you gave Sparky a recommendation
for a prop on the G-62. Which prop would you
suggest for the G-45. It's pulling a 23# P-51
around.
Thanks for any help!

I have been using [link=http://www.opti2-4.com/opti-2.htm]Opti-2[/link] for many years and I will go so far as to say they are the best oil in existence... I recently took apart a chainsaw I'd been using the oil in since new (almost 7 years - poulan 42cc) to convert it... and there wasn't a scratch on the piston... smooth as glass! And NO carbon build up.
I swear by this stuff... I'm even going to start using the [link=http://www.opti2-4.com/opti-4.htm]Opti-4[/link] in my other engines..
Oh yeah... these engines are not high compression engines... so the best gas to use is just 87 octane... You will not gain anything from higher octanes..
