I was just wondering, I recently purchased a wasp .26 for my sav and i have heard alot of people say that the 30% with a 1/10 shim added under the plug gets you the best results. I broke her in extremely carefully on 20% blue thunder. I have about half a gallon through so far. Can i switch to 30% and be okay. Thanks for the help.
 
Yes you can switch to 30% with no worries at all. You might have to re-tune a little but not enough to have to worry about it. As far as running an extra washer under the plug I only did it for break in. I have a picco26 and it helped out greatly for break in. Once broken in I took the extra washer out and ran it as normal.
 
Make shure you slowly drive it to break in the engine with the higher fuel %. You dont wanna blow up the engine that costed your hard earned money.
 
Picco self advice this on there site:
-If you are using 10% nitro remove a 0,1 mm gasket between the combustion head and cylinder.
-If you are running 20-25% nitro leave the head clearance as it came.
-If you are running 30% or more nitro then add another 0,1 mm gasket.
