27. Alcohol is not effected as much by air temperature and/or atmospheric conditions. Therefore the
performance should be more consistent and predictable during a day of racing. The general rule of
thumb is every 40 degrees represents a 4% change in air/fuel. Normally this would be one jet number
in a gasoline jet, however, with alcohol a 4% change is going to be a wider spread, as the hole in the
main jet is so much larger. With a baseline jet of 188 a 4% increase is to a #192 a 4% decrease is to
#184.
28. We hope you enjoy your alcohol conversion kit. We remind you that alcohol, as a racing fuel is a high
maintenance product. It is not stable over a long period of time, it will absorb water from the air to the
point of equaling its own weight in water. It is our recommendation to mix your own top lube and
scent rather than purchase your fuel with these elements pre-mixed. Methanol is petroleum based
product and can transform into paraffin when it becomes unstable or with the use of mixing products
that accelerate a breakdown over a short period of time. If performance begins to fall off or flooding
begins, disassemble the fuel bowl to check for dirt, debris or paraffin.
Thank you for purchasing a Quick Fuel Technology alcohol conversion kit we are confident you will be
extremely happy with the performance. This confidence is based on the high quality; race proven
