something most have caugt the alky line on my car, it is pretty low, but anyway it broke a ziptie and the line rubbed the cv shaft. id say my car wasn't getting alky for a week of dailly driving before i caught it. but car is still fine and compression checked normal. So my guess is cuz my tune was pretty conservative and not too much boost for alky (25 psi) 20g-9-5 not to mention the stock computer pulling time all worked together to save my ***

Wow, you are lucky.
You ran the line under the chassis?
What AFR were you tuned for?
Were you beating on the car at all during that period?

^ If your meth line is severed, then that little led will still light up, except that the meth is not getting into the engine.

True. But I open my hood quite often and everything is mounted in my engine bay, so I would see any leaks.

Methanol would be evaporated before you even opened your hood.
