Does anyone out there know how much fuel a engine of the above type will run on 1/2oz of 10% fuel or 1 oz for that matter. I don't want to have to set up a engine on the test block to find out. I am guessing about 2 min per OZ.

Hi Steve. It will go longer than that. I'd say around 3 minutes per ounce, maybe more.
These engines are, of course, of modest power, so you do not trade off fuel economy, as you might with more modern, ABC .15s.

Thanks Currell, I am building a .75 copy of the Red Zephyr old timer for RC and wondered what sized tank to use. It has been 20 years since I had a .15X on a plane and wondered if .5 OZ would be enough to get it up a fair amount. 1 or 1.5 min. should do it. Thanks for the input
