Hi, i have a question about using after run oil. i have a rs4 evo, with stock t- 15 , that i have been running 30% (sidewinder) fuel in. On the back of the sidewinder fuel bottle it says not to use after run oil with this fuel. I have a 705 serpent with nova mega .12 in the mail as we speak right now and i wanna make sure that not using the after run oil with this new car will be ok. I have had no probs that i can tell with the rs4 engine since i have had it. your comments and input would be helpful thank you.
 
Why would it be bad? Never used fuel past 20% but I would like to think that using ARO would help the engine life.
 
Not sure why it would be bad, I have just been going by what the fuels says. So using the after run oil wont hurt,but help things? I think there is some kind of after run oil mixed in the Sidewinder fuels,, but not sure a newbie at this stuff.

Also jon,, do you think i should drop down to 20% fuel?
 
Stay with that % fuel if u are racing. As for the ARo I use 35% in my Nova .12 and never had a problem.
