Torco fuel

[Ken Webb]

Does anyone know what type and percentage of oil is used in the rc fuel?

 

[RodneyPierce]

Its Torco's proprietary blend of oil. And its 17% oil. 100% pure synthetic.

I just cracked my first case of torco 66% and it seems like good fuel so far......

 

[RodneyPierce]

I have personally ran quite a few cases through my own boats, and have not had one single issue with the fuel.

 

[Tony Drake]

What percentage does torco offer??

 

[RodneyPierce]

Tony, they offer 50, 55, 60 and 66 for boat fuel.

I run nothing but 66%

Tony, they offer 50, 55, 60 and 66 for boat fuel.

I run nothing but 66%

Thanks Rodney And are all of those 17% oil

Just another thumbs up for Torco. Several people I know use it in their boats, I have several jugs of 50% waiting to use as well

 

[RodneyPierce]

Tony, I believe that the 50% is actually 22% oil, but the rest are 17%

 

[RodneyPierce]

Ok. Just wanted to update this as some may feel it's important.

Alright everyone.  I just got an email back from Larry at Torco.  He informed me that they are changing the formula to include 2% castor oil in all RC Boat Fuel blends.  So there will always be 2% castor in the mix on all boat fuels going forward.  

IE:  66% nitro has 17% oil (2% castor/15% synthetic)

Thanks Rodney

If there are people out there who have a few gallons of torco before they added the castor to it,can castor be added to the old fuel and if so how much per gallon would you recommend

Thanks Tony

Tony, yes, you can add it. I have ran nothing but the "old" pre castor oil fuel and have zero issues. If your running it in .21's, just burn her up my friend. Wont hurt anything. BUT, if you wanted to add it, 1-2 oz of castor oil will be just fine.
