RC nitro fuel
RC nitro fuel
Seeing as rc nitro cars operate on the same principle as a diesel engine, what would be the outcome of pouring a bit of nitro fuel into my tank?
If this is uncharted territory, I may just have to try it out on my om602
Hey guys this is a question thats been bugging me for a long time.

if you do not change anything and presume the pump take it, you get less power since the heating value is lower

But if it was possible maybe it would work allmost as E85 on petrolcars?
Think i'll stick to diesel;-)

Tetranitromethan in the diesel and it will blow you away
Toluene and teranitromethane will burn at right mixture at 9000m/s
Many years ago in sweden the airplane "Draken" was started with Isopropyl nitrate, my friends father tuck some home to try out on his lawn mover stiga, it shortly after start ended up in parts all over the yard....
If you want your diesel to go crazy there is other thing to give it...

modell fuel get sticky because the recine oil get left when nitromethane evaporate

07-30-2013, 07:42 PM #6Since RC fuel has stuff other than nitro, let's assume pure nitro. What would be the best way to introduce it into the engine? Through the injectors or in with the intake charge?
'82 300D -3" straight pipe, ALDA deleted, 3in1 glowshift gauge, HX30, egr-less manifold, A/W intercooler
'14 Ram 6.7l cummins -G56 handshaker, wishing it was deleted
Since nitro burn throughout the whole stroke of the engine, I think shit would get f*cked up

I'd stick it straight in the fuel tank. But seeing as there is little info out there I guess it would have to be tested both ways.

oh really... please elaborate.

Also nitro methanol is corrosive to carbon steel. I wouldn't exactly want it to sit in my injector pump when I shut the engine off. So I would for go the idea of dumping it into the fuel tank.
Actually RC nitro methanol engines don't work like a diesel. The glow plug in the top of the head on them is what serves as an ignition source. Its heated by the combustion each time and retains heat for the next cycle. In a diesel its the compression of the air that that raises the temp to ignite the fuel.

this is why the contain of castor oil at least was so high, when I was doing this stuff years ago the blend was 20% castor oil and 80% methanol

even methanol is not that great and after it can as well be some formic acid.
