reduces hydrocarbons and peps up your performance, was on the local news
tonight, the guy has a patient on the formula but said he gives its use
freely to the general public.


I wouldn't. 1oz probably isn't enought o do much harm, but I doubt it
would do any good.


Might try mixing some nitromethane and hydrazene in the tank.


I tried the nitromethane and it didn't work. When I was a kid I had a
Hodaka Ace 100 trail bike and I thought "real racers burn
nitromethane!" *so I poured about half a can of cox model airplane
fuel int he tank.

lets just say it didn't run very well.


Anyhow, the daeth knell for the little bike was that instead of two
cycle oil mix, I thought "real racers use castor oil!" Well with none
of that available, I went to the cupboard and got some of moms Canola
cooking oil. Mixed it up about 40:1, poured it in, and a-w-a-a-y we
go!

For about 45 seconds

That took care of it, And I didn't have to worry about using nitro or
vegetable oil for motorcycle fuel anymore.
