Starting equipment
Fuel: 5% - 20% nitromethane content
Most of the fuels we carry meet or exceed the lubricant content
required for maximum engine performance and long life. In the past
conventional lubricant content used in fuel was 18%. But with new
advanced technologies, fuels like Red Alert and O'Donnell have a
better quality of lubricants even thought the percentages of
lubricant content are lower. These high tech lubricants provide
exceptional cooling and protection.
