Anyway how's the engine Steve,
And will it have a boost bottle?.

not sure how the boost bottle subject came up but there is a take off point on the rubber manifold

Yes they are looking into the benefits of fitting a boost bottle

Love the thread ~ Fab all these new kits n bits coming out

Slightly off the kit subject but concerning all these expensive add-ons

fact
Interesting reports about the bio-fuel ~ @ the moment 5% ethanol but definitely going up in ratio

The ethanol is breaking up the fully-synthetic oils ~ yet the tuners/builders are still stipulating fully-synthetic ??? :wtf: :wtf: :wtf:

well seeing as some fully synthetic oils are made from modified petrochemicals the oil makers will surely alter molecules to combat this, so not strictly man made but chemically altered petroleums mixed with esters and stuff rather than mineral which comes from crude oil, not that this has anything to do with the kit, as long as you jet right and use the same fuel you shouldnt have a problem with 5% ethanol, just use viton seals, vegtable oil is a very good lubricant to use with ethanol/methanol fuel
oh and by the way FULLY synthetic oil made from esters will mix with the ethanol due to the way esters are made

Asked my next door neighbour who is an Indian Chemist ~
What he thought of me running on Sunflower Oil
Like in Flora Margarine ~
He was quite adamant it had to be Bud-ha ~ Not Marge )

so you saying castor oil is s**t then, think you should go back to school and pay attention in chemistry and possibly actually learn were esters come from, instead of asking yr drug dealer

I don't think that mnpes is saying castor oil is s**t, merely punning with Bhuda and butter.

Oil get me coat
