Default Blue Thunder Fuel

Ive found it runs quite well. Apparently it has a high oil content. Also it doesnt necessarily mix that well with other fuels but that shouldn't be a problem if you carefully run the previous fuel empty (not high revs as always). I also found that you need to adjust the main needle a bit leaner but it runs quite cool.

Does anybody know if there is a link to compare oil type/content for different fuels?

Also, if more oil generally means better lubrication and thus less wear why not run more oil and higher nitro to compensate for the fact that there is more oil so less methanol (which means less actual fuel to burn so less power?
