Hey guys I could really use some help
I race an alchohol powered briggs and stratton engine on my race go kart. Anyways I've got some nitromethane layin around and in the endless pursuit of faster could we run it on nitromethane? Would we have to mix with alchohol or what. Please and thanks for the help in advance

please look up the density of these fuels and do some research. I'm going to say no.

I ran it in a 70 firebird with a 400small block chevy in it. The shop I bought the fuel from said to mix it with 92 octain and forged pistons were a must. It realy makes the guy behind your cars eyes water too.

Just get some VP M5 fuel.

If the purpose of your post was to imply that M5 and Nitromethane are comparable in any way......you are seriously misinformed.

If you can tune it accordingly!! A slight mixture would have it's benefits. Pros and cons with everything. But for a novice guy tuning no it won't work lol

Oh and LOL @ the nitromethane lying around.

If the nitro has a purpleish hue go pour it on an ant pile. It's not good.
Nitro does not mix well with gas anyway and will pop and bang.
By the way. M5 is methanol with a splash of nitro.

Hey Blown06! Don't type unless You know what you're typing about!
ni·tro·par·af·fin (ntr-pr-fn)
n.
Any of a group of organic compounds formed by replacing one or more of the hydrogen atoms of a paraffin hydrocarbon with the univalent group, NO2, as in nitromethane, CH3NO2. M5!!!

Nitro Will NOT MIX WITH GASOLINE! You can use Propylene Oxide!

a nitroparafin is not nitromethane. Why don't you call and ask VP? You'll be eating crow when your done talking to them.

Isn't the briggs motor a 2-stroke, meaning the nitromethane is mixed with an obscenely high amount of oil to lubricate the motor?

Shouldn't work, but I'm okay with you trying to prove me wrong.
