    I like use this in the fall / autumn. Gives the motors a nice and warm feeling. May try it in the spring as a nice wake up...

    Maybe I am confused, was this for smoke or for lubricant?

    Just removed a CF pipe from one of John’s 60cc planes... probably 1000 flights.

    John says he has done extensive testing and the leakage on a CF pipe keeps backpressure low so no issues with heads or gaskets!

    iPhone oil is amazing.... it acts as a variable backpressure regulator. John can tune the seepage rate!!

    Go iPone!!

    Jack... after 1000+, never had an issue with a ZDZ on leaky CF pipes. Some Mfg’s don’t have this feature. Need iPone oil to really bring a CF pipe alive!
