dozer Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) i have no personal experience with m5 but from what ive read m5 has a topend lubricant and other additives that make it harder to burn. it just doesnt work well in 2 strokes. m5 will be really lean if your jetted for m1. a post from titanracing on planetsand: "it is Nitro methane( or at least it has a 5% nitro methane sticker in the label on the drum ) along with some other compounds, I bought a drum to test and ended up giving most of it away to a foul stroke racer. the only way I could get the burn duration down was with more acetone, and prope. I believe the top-end lube was the factor that made it so tough to burn. if the gasses leave the chamber and enter the pipe burning , the whole characteristics of the pipe are altered and the rpm range will be changed drastically, I encountered bad bogging and lack of torque to the extent of .2 at the track,due to the raised core pipe temp from the slower combustion propagation, now if i changed the pipe core temp(new pipes ) and added timing and compression, I could have changed some of that but , to much to deal with and not a viable power adder just to change your fuel" Edited July 6, 2014 by dozer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't hurt my feelings I was just asking who mentioned the M5. I know it was basically a 4 stroke alky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickedcarbine Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 As I stated in a related thread. You should assume there is a jetting change with any fuel change. If you're afraid to spend more time jetting, you probably shouldn't be running alky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
