Default O.S. fuel

it's an os cv-x 15. I bought a towerhobbies st-15 just to start out a couple of years ago; it was really fast for a 200 dollar car and it was fun jumping it. Then i took it to pismo beach with proline paddles and it flew up the slopes. After the trip it died and sat in my garage for a year while i was driving a stampede. A month ago i picked it up and put t-maxx shocks, proline tires, and a proline body on to the broken truck. I eagerly await my os to get this thing running again.

O.S. states in their instructions that a fuel will no less than 18% oil content should be used. Nitro can be as much as 20% with that oil content. If you go higher in nitro, then 20% oil content or more may be needed.
