I know its probably not a good idea but has anyone tried to add just a little R/C nitro methane to their gas I have some from one of my rc cars and I kinda want to put some in my goped. Just wondering if anyone has tried it.
Look up member @Karl Snarl and look for his many, many postings where he is always running not nitromethane, but nitropropane on his bikes.I know its probably not a good idea but has anyone tried to add just a little R/C nitro methane to their gas I have some from one of my rc cars and I kinda want to put some in my goped.

I forget who did it, but someone made an engine to run on jet fuel. It ate up the aluminum after a few yearsIm more afraid of it just eating everything in the carb
That's the case with a lot of oxygenated fuels (alcohols and nitro-meth). There is a reason I invested in tools rated for bending and flaring stainless steel lines and always used anodized fittings when I would build my race engines/vehicles. Unsurprisingly, it oxidizes the metal over time.I forget who did it, but someone made an engine to run on jet fuel. It ate up the aluminum after a few years
Nothing like accuracy in measurement. A decent splash or 2 decent splashes. Lol.Well I did it, I'm guessing its a Liter gas tank, so I put a decent splash of nitro in and rode it around for about 20 mins, didn't pick up any Rpm's something on this engine is really restricting its Rpms, Only performance increase i had was just better low end torque, I may try to put 2 decent splashes next time but I don't really want to just let it sit in the carb I wanna have time to flush it with non mixed gas so it probably wont be soon because its getting pretty cold out now
