If the vehicle will be operated in an area with fine dust, use filter oil or caster oil instead of fuel and make both the inner and outer foam moist. It is important that the foam is only moist to trap dirt and allow air passage. With the foam too wet, limited air can pass through; therefore, limiting engine performance.

FUEL RECOMMENDATION A good quality, commercially available model engine fuel containing 5% to 30% nitro with 15% to 25% oil is recommended for initial break-in and regular run-in of this engine. Thunder Tiger also recommends that the oil composition to be made of caster oil or a caster/synthetic blend. Fuel containing only synthetic lubricant is much less tolerant of high temperature and lean carburetor settings; thus, may cause the engine to become difficult to operate under normal conditions. Less % of nitro in fuel means that the engine will produce slightly less power. Conversely, fuel with less nitro % will have higher alcohol % which enables the engine to operate at a much lower temperature. Oil composition in fuel is vital for a 2-cycle engine's moving internal parts. More % of lubricant means that the fuel has more oil to lubricate the moving parts. Thunder Tiger finds that the PRO-70BX performs best with 20% oil. GLOW PLUG RECOMMENDATION The length of the glow plug and the quality of its coil have a major impact on overall performance and reliability of the engine. The engine operates best with a platinum coil plug rated at medium to hot temperature. The following is a list of glow plugs suitable for use in this engine: Thunder Tiger 9281, Enya #3/#5, McCoy #9/#59, Novarossi C4S/C5S/C6S, OS A3/A5/#8, and Picco P6S/P7S.
