Anybody out there have experience with this fuel?
Iobtained some recently ,5% flavor and tried it in my Irvine 40 MKIII. It seems to like this fuel just fine. It ran very smooth and throttled well.
It says only 18% oil but Iknow Sig fuels are mixed by total of volume not weight so the percentage is up where it should be. Inoticed the exhaust had a lot less smoke but not completely gone. Also the residue was diminshed over my usual 20% oil 50/50 syn/castor fuels. However the oil was not completely gone which Ithink is a good thing.
Are other full synthetic fuels available similar?
Do those fuels burn the oil completely?
Do they eliminate the smoke?
Are they mixed by total volume not weight?
Opinions are welcomed (like Ihave a choice
) Just kidding guys.

All Sig fuels are blended on site at the plant. And it is clearly printed on the label that Sig fuels are blended by percentage of volume not weight.

Yep, just checked with Sig it is Klotz with a friction modifier or something that makes it run cooler. They wont tell me what that is.
Top Secret and all ya know .
