years of flying when I sourced and kept my own fuel mixing ingredients from
reputable suppliers. On this occasion I purchased some methanol from a club
member who sold me some of his own methanol because I was out and needed some
in a hurry. Somehow his batch was contaminated but I never bothered to find out
why. Lesson learned – never buy when you don’t know were it has
been. A couple of dollars of bad methanol has ruined $120.00 of good oil and
nitro (Grrrrr).<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

considerable percentage to regular model fuel and got surprising results....the
engine produced more power. The theory was that oxygen available from the
decomposition of water was available for more complete combustion of the fuel.
Of course, that's at full throttle.....I would question the transition
qualities of any water containing fuel, and transition is what we drive for
most. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
