how to make rc car fuel.

homemade two stroke nitro rc car fuel. one alternative to nitro fuel.
My mixture: 2t oil - 0,18 gal. ethanol - 0,52 gal. gasoline - 0,30 gal. it's for one gallon.

Vaatan rahus videot ja siis äkki avastan et eesti kellukese pudel. :D

See oli ainuke asi mille järgi avastasin et sa eestlane. :D

@ImJaanek

Kui ma teeks videosid eestlastele, oleks vaatajaskond väga väike - see ei tasuks ära.

Aga jah, "Kelluke" vaevalt kusagil mujal ringi liigub :)

This is not equivalent to nitro fuel, but you can run your engine with that. The original nitro fuel is just something else - consisting of twenty different parts this 20%, 30% is some portion (usually between 10% and 30%) of nitromethane mixed with methanol my fuel don`t contain nitromethane and second question you have to mix your fuel well do not forget 2 stroke oil.

@MrTiti989

New engine costs 80 euros and one gallon of nitro gas is 30 euros that`s 1 engine = less than 3 gallons. I find that fuel is too pricey. And when fourth gallon goes you start to think "why"?

@tablaconcept  u can buy pure ethanol from chemistry shops supplying for school and college labs.thats wat they use in alcohol burners.it might contain methanol which makes it poison ,but its the same none the less.

@rexman91 no, for that you will need a spark egnition 

[tablaconcept]

Hello there is it possible to use 100 % alocohol instead of ethanol coz its difficult to buy the ethanol in india ?

@TheSierra1983 yeah i know thats why i said its hard to do and pointless tbh rather just buy a 2 stroke engine rther than buy or use a nitro one and then setup everything and drill holes for timing etc and then fit the timing rods and valves etc etc so in the end it basicly is pointless to bother trying to do

@pyronathanpyro

Electronic ignition on this little engine will be very complicated. it requires a special high speed timing (example: at 15 000- 30 000 rpm). Even on real cars it's hard science. Glow ignition is simple and cheap to maintain. I've burnt liters and liters that fuel thru my engine - still runs good no problem at all. Carburetor tuning is important if you run too lean you simply burn hole thru your piston.

@TheSierra1983 you can if you have a spare engine and can get a spark plug and spark coil system for it to work and also some suitable 2 stroke for the engine then you could but its not surgested as these engines that run on glow fuel do have different carbs etc to 2 stroke and do have a different inlet outlet setup but it could be possible personaly thow i wouldnt bother for it id just buy a 2 stroke engine there £60 for a decent one in a shop near me.

@pyronathanpyro

what exactly not to try?

[pyronathanpyro]

@TheSierra1983 dont try it you will blow up the engine its nitro powered meaning glow plug to heat the fuel diesel uses glow plugs not standard 2 stroke petrolium so dont bother as you need a different valve setup and carb and also need a spark plug
