Default SMOKE issues

I've had success running smoke on 4 stroke glow motors by injecting the fluid into the muffler through the nipple, with the glow fuel tank vented to atmosphere. There is a loss of performance of maybe 300 rpm due to loss of muffler pressure, depending on the engine. I tried a Slimline Smoke Muffler on a 1.60 OS, with the muffler pressure connected. I could make more smoke by just runnig rich! THEN the fun started. I landed with a full tank. Some glow fuel, some smoke fluid. I had to dissasemble the entire system to clean it out! Here's the point-I'm putting a Funtana together with a Saito 100, and was wondering if the Slimline smoke muffler is worth the effort.......
