    nitro snowblower

    I just had my little 2-stroke snowblower running on 100%
    I started it up on gas and let it run for a little bit...looked in the tank to see how much gas was left then when it got almost empty I poured it in. At first it started reving up and down and I could smell the nitro, so I fiddeled with it and it didn't really change. It sounded like it would rev up a because it was running out of fuel, I just took the float bowl off and took the neddle right out and started it up again and it ran great. I couldn't get any flames and I think I should pre-mix a little oil to make it live.
    I came inside to warm up and figure out how to video this for you guys.

    Oh that rules on many levels.
    That which you manifest is before you.

      I've never put a video on you-tube before but I'm pretty sure I can email one.
      You can really smell it but I can get any flames, maybe it's to bright out?

          shweeeeet, thinking of trying to run my old dandy pocket bike on 80 to 90 % . The links that Jefff posted on my 2stroke nitro question in the tech post sells gas ,nitro and propylene ( i think thats what it was!)

            I had a friend that lived in Iowa in 78-79 when I was there took his snow blower ( it had a tach on it) and he put a air cleaner on it over the four stroke flywheel cooling fins then ran it int o the front of the carb told me he gained 50 RPM LOL It looked like crap but those where the days!

                No alcohol was involved, it was just a case of ADD and nitro. I had a back fire yesterday and might have blown out a reed valve...It was really throwing the snow though, and where it would have bogged and stalled on gas, it just kept chugging along. It probably really needed a bigger jet, that and it was pretty bright out yesterday so no flames.
                I am now turning my attention to a little 4-stroke briggs & stratton I have. I think it has more compression plus I don't have to worry about mixing oil.

                  Do keep us up to date on the B&S 4-stroke. I've often shared in the same desire to throw a small huffer on one and drown it with nitro.
