O'donnel, Byron, or Side winder, 20% 12% or less, i think over 12% oil will cripple the engine, and below it will rip it

I run Sidewinder Race 30% (12% oil) I like it. The only other fuel I would run is Byrons 3000 Gen 2 but I can't get it around here.[&o]

I would also try Byrons Gen 2 but I would have to drive almost 5 hours to get it! Blue Thunder Sport 20% has worked great for me so far even though it seems to be one of the "hated" fuels.
