1oz diesel fuel to 10gal of regular unleaded
1oz diesel fuel to 10gal of regular unleaded is what the man said, 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've ehard of that. There's a local guy that carries a quart oil container will diesel in it and when he fills his car or pickup, he puts the diesel in first then tops the tank. I've been running 2-stroke 50:1 mix in my Briggs lawnmower and it's been runing fine. no plug fouling and I like the idea of a bit of cyl wall lube too. I don't know if there's a performance difference or not. it's a 5hp lawnmower so I can't seem to notice any difference in performance. |

I wouldn't. 1oz probably isn't enought o do much harm, but I doubt it would do any good. -- The bigger government gets, the more it tends to rule out common sense. |

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. |

I often wondered but never tried it. I remember the Dragsters ran the combination for a little while. The fuel tanks were on the front then. You could watch the clear fumes rrise from the cap. Once it stopped the stuff had formed a class A explosive...not a good thing. They poured the two, into the tank, as close to the race time as possible. i can't rememer any incidents, right off but I'm sure there were a couple of unexpected detonations. you've heard the hammer, of a real hemi,...the bark of alcohol and the detonation of nitro? That mix was a little more robust. They burn so much nitro I don't see how the pistons have any room to compress. |

Only if I wanted to go very fast for a short period of time and didn't mind a serious overhaul. -- The bigger government gets, the more it tends to rule out common sense. |

That mix was a little more robust. They burn so much nitro I don't see how the pistons have any room to compress. The supercharger makes up the difference. It's amazing how much it costs to get that kind of horsepower in a modern drag engine. It also amazes me that the blower can pull up to 400 hp, and the engine still puts out about 12,000! Not very long of course, and they also will run through the nitromethane at the rate of about 30 gallons in 6 seconds. You can't pour it out of a bucket that fast. |
