<DIV>Yeah, but my garage floor isn't rusting, so I see no need to oil it.
Besides, I've got 2 Triumphs (one is a 1971 Bonneville) and the other is a 1974
BMW. I've certainly got more than I need.</DIV>

<DIV><BR>Bill,</DIV>
<DIV> Well if you want a 4-stroke engine that WILL last almost
forever, might I suggest a 1964 Harley Big Twin (Pan-Head)? Mine finally
needs a valve job but that's not a problem because I can still get
parts. LOL</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Jay first: I've used the Webra 1.20
2 stroke, and while it's a good engine, mine is worn out. That
doesn't rule out a 2 stroke, but I've always felt that the 4 stroke
"followed" what I wanted for pattern somewhat better than the 2
stroke. But, no, I'm not locked in to a 4 stroke.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Tony:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Actually, I have the best possible engine
now. Buff Miller who was flying his Sport at Green Sea with a
Y.S. 110, came up to me after the 3rd round, and said "You're
definitely outperforming me." Which I was, after observing
Buff's flight. Most of my Pattern is flown at a quite reduced
setting, but I have LOTS more under my left thumb solely for maximum
vertical figures. My sole concern is that a 20 year old engine,
(I bought it in 1989, when they were first introduced) can't last
forever, and parts can become a problem. I don't want to ground
the airplane for want of a powerplant suitable for Pattern. So,
I'm gathering pertinent information ahead of time. Actually,
it's been running perfectly for years; I just know that, (like
me<G>) it can't go on forever, and I want to be ready with
information as to where to go when I need to.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Gentlemen, thanks for your input.
It is definitely noted, and will be condsidered.</FONT></DIV>

Anyway… This was my first NATS since 1983, when I also placed
2<SUP>nd</SUP>. After the NATS I got a call from the nice people
at Byron Fuels…. They wanted me to fly their fuel. I
explained to them that I appreciated their interest in me, but that I
was very happy with Morgan/Cool Power fuels. They persisted in
telling me that they had the BEST fuel on the market and that it was
superior to Cool Power. Well, I had to take exception to
that. <BR><BR>You see, in the 2 ½ years leading up to the 1990
NATS, I never lost a single ROUND at a pattern contest in Expert
class! I flew in 10-15 contests each year. In that period
of time, I had not changed a single part in my YS .60RE engine, other
than a glow plug. The engine never quit, was 110%
reliable. So, I explained to the Byron folks, your fuel CAN’T be
any better! It MIGHT be as good, but can’t be
better….</SPAN></FONT>

here. I've been flying a Piedmont sport that tips the scales at
