Morgan fuel question
« on: August 23, 2019, 03:19:09 PM »

  A friend has some Morgan fuel with this # on the bottle that another friend gave him.  We are curious about the castor/synthetic blend, and is it a Gasoline or glow fuel blend?  Hopefully someone can help..
 This is the number on the bottle  C-P 14   Cool Power    Any help will be appreciated..

I'm no fuel expert, but a minute with Google using "Morgan Fuel "cp-14"" yielded a few hits regarding "cp-14" as a synthetic oil, not fuel.
Dip a finger in it. Any nitro will cool your finger fairly rapidly. Any methanol will too, but not to the same degree.
Oil-only won't have the same evaporative feel, and it will be slippery.

Good luck on your search.

For our use the Morgan link provided is not helpful ."WE"need to know type of oil used and percentages of oil. That "trade secret" stuff is lame. They want you to think that making fuel is some sort of witchcraft......Just Sayin' Cheers,Skip

Keep in mind the oil type and percentage for Morgan fuels is different for each blend. That link is showing the oil percentages for "1/2A" fuel blend ONLY. CP-14 means nothing about the type of fuel or oil. It's claimed by Morgan to be some sort of "Friction modifier" contained in all of their oils. Your fuel bottle should indicate R/C or Controline and should show the nitro content. You can then look up the ingredients on that same web site.
