Ted, they aren't "nitro" engines. They are glow engines and will run
perfectly fine without any nitromethane at all.

The first thing a knowledgeable modeler will change in his/her habits is to
cease calling them what they are not and to employ the proper terminology.
Kiddy-kiddies use the term nitro in place of glow. It isn't a generational
thing. It is the right thing.

Sorry Ted but that's *not* the proper break-in for an ABC/AAC engine.

"Nitro" is either bat poop (ammonium nitrate) or the stuff old farts
take for heart problems (nitroglycerine). Dodge "Nitro?" They sell bat
poop? A place called "Nitro Models?" They sell heart medicine?

I like beefier women. Those girls look like they throw up into jars and
hide them in their closets so their mom's don't know.
