can any one give me advice on the per centage of fuel i should buy? i am currently running some 5% fuel. i have been for some time and am looking to go higher. should i go to 10% or go straight to 15%?
 
I would not run anything lower than 20% in a ground based nitro engine. I run 15% in my planes. That is because they normally have higher compression. You will notice a HUGE difference in power if you went to 20%. You can even safely go as high as 30% nitro.
