So in reference to the comment by "SlowCar" about being cautious of buying methanol from an open drum... (same pump aslo used for racing fuel)...

So, so if there is a bit of racing fuel accidentally mixed in to the methanol.. what's the worst that would happen? So you shoot a little bit of (residual I might add) racing fuel into the intake. I can't see how that would hurt anything.

gasoline will cause wetted polymeric parts in a WAI system,
-valves in shurflo pumps to swell
-seals in solenoid valves to swell...
and in higher concentrations, degrade and fail prematurely

why take the risk
