Title: Diesel fuel
Post by: paulb on March 16, 2011, 09:00:38 pm
Years ago I used to mix my own fuel.  Hardware shop for the parrafin, motorcycle shop for the Castrol R and the chemist for the ether.  I've got a feeling that the ether might be a little hard to get hold of today!  I've bought a couple of old engines.  I've got a DC diesel and an OS .20 glow plug.  What is the best modern fuel for running these engines, and where can I get hold of it in the Wigan, Leigh, Manchester area.  Any help most appreciated.

Suggest you follow this link. They've been making model fuels for a very long time now.
