+1 on the blue block. Good stuff.

WD40 is a water displacing lubricant. I wouldn't use it in a glow engine...

[Tinker]

Oh Really? I didn't know WD-40 was water based. Where did you hear that?

Thanks Tink and Chris, updated.

I still would not recommend using it in a nitro motor.

After run oil is designed specifically to help clean out your nitro engine, keep it properly lubricated, and assist easier starting the next time you fire up.

Don't get me wrong I have WD in my pit bag, it is primarily uused for cleaning parts and making them shiny, but it will never see the inside of my motor.

WD is a general purpose lubricant, that is "ok" at best for lubricating a sliding screen door.

Not an argument here but you ought to go to their website and read all the uses...kind of interesting.

I know 1 thing wd40 is 1 hell of a air filter cleaner i found that out Monday

Haven't used ARO in a long time myself...and have had no problems, but to each his own.

Yep Im right there w/Dano..I havent used aro in a long time..as long as your using quality fuel..

Im useing blue thunder 20% almost down with my 3rd gal

[DawgBone]

I quit using ARO, and all my OWB slippage issues went away.... And I'll never use it again...
Having said that.... I do tear down my engines and clean, if they haven't been ran within a couple of weeks...

[Dale88Jr]

Ya if i don't run my truck for a week or 2 i break my motor down and clean it

I use odonells 20% and after a rather hectic outing both trucks got put away without cleaning or anything. Lots of broken parts and such. Anyhow I took the engines apart a month later figuring I had really screwed up and was pleasantly surprised to find them clean and no rust on the innards. I don't suggest doing this but that's my experience with OD 20%. FWIW

I didnt run my trucks for 4 months just like tink said just threw em on the bench and didnt touch em..Then finally got around to working on them and also like tink said i thought there would be a bunch of crud in the engines but to my suprise everything looked great..using OD 30%.Cleaned and fueled they cranked first turn!!!!!

A buddy of mine that's been into nitro for close to 8 yrs told me not to worry about the ARO unless you plan on storing your cars for awhile! He said to just make sure you drain the tank of any fuel when you're done, and you'll be good to go!
I'm pretty new but I haven't had any issues of not using it!
