INCLUDES: One Assembled FS-120 Surpass w/Carb and No Pump One #F Glow Plug One Exhaust Header One Exhaust Muffler One Choke Valve Extension One Set of Instructions, Poster, and Decals (Wrenches, Choke Valve Extension, and Mounting Template Are No Longer Included per O.S.)
REQUIRES: Fuel: 5%-15% nitromethane with 18% lubricant. Synthetic, castor, or a synthetic/castor blend may be used. NOTE: Certain four-cycle fuels cannot be used due to low oil content. However, SOME four-cycle fuels such as the Wildcat 4-Cycle 15% ( CATP9109 ) may be used because it has 18% oil content. When choosing fuels for this engine, the modeler must be sure to select a fuel with at least a 18% lubricant content. Starting and Field Equipment. Propeller (see SPECS).

COMMENTS: Some differences between 4-Stroke and 2-Stroke engines. 4-strokes are quieter. 4-strokes get better fuel economy. 2-strokes generate more RPM (11,000-13,000 rpm with prop while 4-strokes rev to around 9,500 RPM) 4-strokes generate much more torque and will swing a larger prop. 4-strokes have a realistic sound, like a real aircraft engine.
