Methanol in fuel tank

Hi Guys
Do any of you use it in the fuel tank?
If so what percentage are you running and what results are you getting.

Regards

DO NOT PUT METH IN THE FUEL TANK. this will damage your fuel system lines, seals. ect..
meth is designed to be used in the air inlet only.

Hi
Thanks for the sarcastic remarks.
I, and many others use 10% methanol in the fuel tank with good results,it will allow 5%+ ignition timing across the board.

And to Mr Evo11V I suppose you would know all about this then?

Please be a little more courteous to people asking legitimate questions,otherwise shut up.

Regards Sarge

"Mr Sarge uk"... sarcastic because of the "search button" I have heard this discussed before so yes I do know about "that." I have been a member since 2003 and when I see someone with 7 posts and new asking questions like this I wounder.

If you know all this information why did you ask the question to begin with, especially stating you know results of others. Putting higher Octane will also increase your timing too and give you good results

If you really want results just get a kit. Alcohol is corrosive why would you want that running around your fuel lines etc.


I don't want to start a pointless immature conversation. If you have a legitimate question maybe you should explain your self more and be a little more precise then you were, and I'm sure you'll get a much better response.

Slowcar...you need to change your name to like Alcoholic or something. You are like the alky man... I think you have some program that anytime someone posts about alcohol/meth it sends a message directly to your phone and sets off an alarm in your house.
