Some one has offered to slap some methanol in my car, he uses it in his evo! Any body ever used it and is it a safe/wise thing to do? Last thing I want to do is blow it up! He said 3 quarter of a tank petrol quarter meth.....any ideas?

you ideally need to run nylon type fuel lines as it will eventually eat through rubber (especially as some is more than likely 20+ years old) then theres other bits aswell such as injector seals and so forth and the last thing you want is a fuel leak with that gear in the tank as a real fire risk.
with a lot of modern type cars the lines are already geared up to run methanol and other fuel additives

your best bet is do a search on the net and will tell you exactly what needs to be done in order to run it safely on an older type performance car as theres more than ive wrote above Wink

I ran it in my subaru but was mapped for it..!!
Most Ecus can run a few maps so best get her done then run it

Some engines do go bang if using it... Especially if not using up rated parts

Which mix is he using 10% - 20% as a bottle ( additive size)full might be ok to add to a tank
Have you got knock or det sensor.???
