Engine carbon

Hi Anthony,

I used Mobile one after run for a short time. It gummed up my engine so bad,
I had to take it apart and totally clean it. I just run the fuel out now and
have around 160 flights on it, (with the original bearings!). It is also an
OS RX.

You might want to take a look at:

There is a lot of information from a lot of folks there about two strokes in
general.

Best,
Ed
