Engine carbon

[Dean Pappas]

Hi Anthony,
Castor does that. I'd clean it by scraping with the sharp trailing edge of an unusably small APC prop ... like the one you used to run on your 4-stroke last year.

While doing a bearing swap in my high maintenaince, high nitro, hight parts 
count OS Rx, I noticed a lot of carbon on the piston top. Since this is such 
a common procedure I was surprised that I had not noticed this before. Is 
this common? Is this due to the two percent castor in my fuel or the Mobil 
one after run?

Any constructive comments would be appreciated.

Tongue firmly in cheek

Anthony
