I picked up some o'donnells 30% from al's yesterday, so today I decided to run out the remaining 20% that I had so it doesn't go to waste Smile. After three tanks of test and tune I had it dialed down. The truck was running awesome. Best it has in a long time!!

Well, the 20% ran out, so I cracked out the new 30% bottle Cool. With a real good tune on 20%, swithing to the 30% made it rich on the low end and high end. Is it normal to a truck with equals settings to run richer with the higher nitro content? First I started leaning out the HSN a little at a time until I liked it. The truck is straight flying now :eek: and it's only reading 220 on my temp gauge. Cool! After a few high speed passes that left me with a smile, ear to ear, I started fooling around with the LSN. The truck would load up fairly fast, a little too fast for my taste, so I started leaning that out as well.

When all was said and done, I say to hell with 20%! The truck is idling great, accelerates harder at every rpm than before and the engine doesn't skip a beat.

Time to terrorize at the dirt dawg race tommorrow! Wink
yes another victom for me to beat lol jk. Glad your truck is finally cooperating with you.
Makes me feel like grabbing some 30% stuff for my truck! I guess I better see how well I can tune it after that Rolleyes
