    It makes a huge difference I just started running c-12 in my 34 cc reed case engine built by ESP I did one tank of 91 octane then switched too the c-12 ratio 32/1 it’s night and day difference like you said in video she’s angry and happy. 😁

    More oil you use the more it drops your octane and the flash point of the fuel

    So I find that my 1/5 scale redcat rampage mt ran better on the 25:1 VP powermix than the 93 octane fuel and oil mix I currently run and I also went through way less spark plugs lol. 🤣 Maybe I will try the VP c12 and either the motul 800 or amsoil dominator. 😎👍🤛

    So after Comming across your video ima gonna give 32/1 a try (:
    Been running 25/1 with amsol interceptor says it’s good for 50/1 but I don’t need todo max specs of what oil can do, if I do try 50/1 I’ll switch up to saber I also wanna switch to saber cause of the fuel stabilizer already mixed into it!
    I run a custom 45cc zenoah motor (: Temps are around 180c I did get it to 220 for break in. By adjusting carb to idle a bit higher.
    Great content.
    I do have 1 question?. When you went back to 25/1 with 40T motor and motol did you feel lose of power? That’s one thing you didn’t touch up on. Lol

    • @Meyers2strokeRcgarage
      @Meyers2strokeRcgarage  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Awesome comment bro!!! When I switched back to 25 to 1 with the 40 GT from Taylor RC I did not notice a drop in power at all. In fact I gained power 👍🏼that could be partly because of the Taylor 40 GT is so powerful. I’ve done lots of research, and I found out that two strokes actually make more power running thicker ratios.

      I’ve never bought any pre-mixes The most important thing is to know what kind of oil they’re using to mix with whether it’s for lawn equipment or something else. I know a lot of people who run premixed gas like that and have no problems but I don’t do it personally and won’t put my word on the line for it😉
