          Fuel: 2-cycle glow fuel with 10%-15% nitromethane, 16% lubricant-
            Most of the fuels we carry meet or exceed the lubricant content
            required for optimum performance and maximum engine life.  In the
            past, the conventional lubricant content used in fuel was 18%.  But
            with new advanced technologies, fuels like Red Alert and O'Donnell
            for example, have a better quality of lubricants even though the
            percentages of lubricant content are lower.  These high-tech
            lubricants provide exceptional cooling and protection.
