K&B fuel recomendation for the older 3.5 inboard engines

Postby DON DEVRIES » Fri Feb 18, 2011 1:02 am

Where can I research the K&B 500, and K&B 1000+ fuels. Where can I find these for my use? :roll:

When I ran the K&B 3.5cc inboard marine motors I used Byron 25% or Byron 45% nitro fuel.

Considering engine life and the cost of nitromethane today, I would keep the nitro content 25% or less.

We, K&B, only sell fuel locally.

K&B 500 12.5 nitro
K&B 1000 25% nitro

Both available for pick up at our factory.

Randy, It's great to hear you are still selling K&B fuel. I'd love to get some but it's a long way from Seattle for a gallon of fuel.

Who makes your fuel and does it still come in the same cans? Do you still have 100?

Prices?

Thanks
