I am running trinity monster power 20% with 12% oil and I here that I should use higher oil content,so i am thinking of useing trinity monster brew 20% nitro with 16% oil .Do you think that is better for my cen 16nx engine?.I am also thinking of putting 30% nitro in for a little boost of power.

I've run my CEN motor with 50% Nitro but I'm nuts!
Get fuel with the highest possible content that you can get as you want to get as close to 20% as you can.

i have heard some people talk about using airplane fuel in their boats,why would they do that instead of using nitro car fuel?? I just got my first boat & was going to use 20% monster horsepower fuel with 12% castor oil content in it.Will this decrease my engines life or be fine??Thanks for the help

If you want to use a car and truck fuel, get some of the Backyard Basher stuff, it does have a higher oil content in it. I see that come of the fuels are lowering the oil percentage to 7 and 8%. It must be that they want to sell you more pistons, sleeves and new motors. There is a give and take on everything. We run higher Nitro than the 4-wheeled crowd, we keep the throttle wide open plus we actually run leaner so we do need the extra protection of more oil.

I have been adding a little castor to mine for added protection.I am running trinity monster power 30% with a little klotz for extra protection and it runs great.

I have run ODonnell 30% for about 4 years now with fantastic luck (9 1/2 gallons on a Hyper .21) I tried Trinity monster fuel and had nothing but problems, not to mention the terrible cheap perfume stench it has when you burn it. I'm back to the ODonnel and trouble free!
