Allen Eshleman:
What is the correct fuel for a Super Tigre 34?

For an Enya 15 IV

For a Fox 15 Slant Plug

Allen Eshleman:
I see from a former thread in which I participated that for the Enya - 10 % nitro, 20 % castor was recommended by Enya for the 15-III.  Not sure about the Enya 15-IV.  The other two engines - I don't know for sure.

Dennis Toth:
Allen,
The 10%N is ok for all, if they are ABC or ABN I would go with 23% (50/50 castor/syn) oil. Read Randy's pinned article "Fuel , GLO-plug and running tips" at the top of the forum. It goes into detail about what fuel for what type engine.

Best,    DennisT

I run all my engines on 10% nitro and at least 22% oil,1/2&1/2. D>K

Remember not too lean them out too much D>K

Allen Eshleman:
Thanks for your thoughts.  I may get some Sig 20% Castor 10N or I might mix half and half 10% N 29% Castor and 10 23 (11 1/2 x 11 1/2 and try that since I have both on hand.  I once ran a used Enya 15, on such a mixture but it seized up. I think it ran too long.  It ran good at the beginning of the Flight on an Akromaster.  I haven't tried it since.  I am hoping that I didn't fry it.
