[SPAM] Re: Moki 180

[Ed Alt]

5% and an OS type F is fine for the Moki 1.8.  I used to run 10% and discovered it was a waste of money.  It does need a Cline or other means of keeping the right pressure at the carb, which doesn't seem to draw well enough on its own, but that's about it's only flaw besides being heavy.  Early 1.80's had weak cranks, which they took care of.

    To be honest, if weight wasn't an issue, I would use the MOKI 180. I have not used an engine more user friendly or more robust than that one, and has power to burn. Piped, propped and mounted correctly, it could be made fairly quiet. It was nice to just fuel it, prime it, one flip start it, and have it last several seasons without any hint of a problem. No bearings, no rods, no rings, or anything else for that matter.


  I have virtually no experience with MOKI engines, other than to sell fuel to owners and listen to complaints from the ones who aren't convinced that MOKIs want/need low % nitro fuel to operate properly. Does anyone care to comment which fuel works best in their MOKI?
