i have a mini motorcycle with a weedwacker engine and i put the same fuel in it with some 2 stroke..... it seems like it has less torque and i have to adjust the choke the faster i go, but once it gets going, it GETS GOING
RC fuel is Nitromethane and Methyl Alcohol. I know I've flown RC since 91. Used Ritch's Brew Synthetic 15% for years and years. I know this stuff is hard on engines as I had an old gallon that we poured into a 96 F150 rental with a 351 V8 an eighth of a tank. That truck boiled the tires for three blocks through OVERDRIVE. It started surging and trying to pull through stop lights and getting hot so we pulled over and filled the tank with gas to dilute it before we blew the engine lol.
higher octane fuel is used for high compression engines such as aircraft engines, lower octane is used just for low compression such as small car engines or weed-whackers in this case. High octane fuels wont damage a low compression engine but a low octane fuel can do serious damage to a high performance engine due to detonation before the piston reaches top dead center due to high pressure
Im not a geek i just love this stuff XD FUEL AND DETONATION !!!!! hehehehe
nitromethane fuels contain more lubricants than regular gasoline/oil mixtures and it's also faster burning than gasoline, that's why it revs like that... Also, higher octane gasoline doesn't affect engine performance, lower octane does. the term Octane is used to describe how much compression the fuel can take before it reacts.
nitro refers to nirtomethane which is the under lying ingredient to the "nitro" fuel. alcohol is actually the secondary combustion ingredient. Then you have oils for lubrication. do you know why "nitro" is so useful in smaller engine? bc it uses less oxygen to burn more efficiently than gasoline. meaning the size of the piston can be greatly reduced and still have a reliable mixture inside. sorry... i felt like ranting and being an ass.
@AlchemistHawk Not to mention that nitromethane is practically like having a turbo charger or nitrous. I dont think there is any alcohol in nitromethane, is there? I thought it was CH4methane(CH3) and N20(nitrous)? I dont think an alcohol, methanol/ethanol etc would work very well in a 2 stroke. Given that alcohol is polar and oil is not.
@andy2108 nitro fuel for rc nitro cars is made of nitro methane the same thing used in top fuel dragsters and funny cars. nitro rc car fuel or ''nitro fuel'' is not made of Alcohol.
i have tried this with the model airplane fuel the weed wacker went crazy here is what was more crazy it was running with the spark pug disconected. can anyone eaplane that?
your engine ran without a spark because the nitro fuel ignited under the heat and compression, just like a real model plane engine. I had a weedwacker once that was so worn that it wouldnt run on gas, but it ran great on nitro.
The mixture needs the right amount of oil and the right amount of nitro that reacts with the metal elements (platinum) in the glow plug to ignite the fuel. You also need gasoline with a high octane ratio in the mix.
sounds like its gonna blow use this neat fuel i use works as well as 89-
1/2 E85 with 15% nitromethane rather than 15% gas 1/2 87 octane gasoline (from BP) Do u have 2 or 4 cycle?
if u have 2-cycle mix at 32:1 (4 ounces per gallon) im actually surprized it didnt blow up,im a hydrocarbon expert i have a uncle that works at a refinery so...ya know
nitro needs higher compresion to ignite. so, even mixed with gas, it will actually hinder the performance of any enigine designed to run on gas. the whacker probly has 7/8:1, and a nitro rc motor has like 11/12:1
yea, i know, the next day we ran it with strait 93 and it still wouldnt go, then on the 3rd day we ran the nitro again and it blew the exhaust off, so we burnt it haha
put 1oo octain gas in it and 30%....it should go then......(the nitro has oil in it witch is keepin the berings lubbepreventing it from sezing up(blowing)
SHIT video never seen before...........lol

RC fuel is 60+% METHANOL, which will ignite in a spark-ignition engine, and that will in turn ignite the nitro in the fuel.
