I was wondering if I could use 2 stroke in a nitro engine nitro fule consist of fuel oil and nitrometnoll so can I do this if so what are the ratios
 
No, because the 2-stroke fuel (gasoline and oil) needs a spark plug to ignite the mixture whereas a nitro motor is more like a diesel and uses compression to ignite the mix.
 
If it runs will it damage it I think it will run because a deisel will run on gas but will dystroy it but if it did run will it damage it
 
It wouldn't run for more than a couple seconds, then it would be dead.
 
There's a you tube video watch it he said he has been doing this for years
 
So why are you asking us?

It won't work, you're talking about 2 very different fuels made for 2 very different engines.
 
Nitro fuel is made of methanol oil and nitrous the nintros makes a bigger explosion which means more power the oil lubrcates the engine the methanol is the base fuel 2 stroke fuel is made off gasoline and oil mixed the gas is the base fuel and the oil lubrcates the engine sow how would this damage the engine if it runs off of it watch the you tube video he makes it puts it in the tank and runs the car
 
If you assume that it will work please go give it a try and inform us how it went.
You seem to already have made up your mind, and I'm sure you're going to give it a try, and I really want to know what happens. I'm thinking it's going to be ugly, costly, and almost certain very messy. If not, hats off to you.

I'm going to have to agree, compression engines and ignition engines dont get along

both are two strokes, both run off different plugs, both run on different motors, both take different amounts of KY jelly

Ky Jelly injection compensates for the lack of crankcase lubrication when a nitrous mixture is applied, not to mention remedy the lean issue often associated with superchargers. :mustache:

But that's a whole other story.

Why the hell won't this guy just buy rc nitro fuel? $100 for a complete running rig, then trying to run gasoline through it? Find a different hobby.
