will the windshield washer fluid that say contains methyl alcohol works? not sure if methanol and methyl are the same thing. it would be nice, I can get these washer fluid for really cheap. but its blue

 

Pretty much anything works. I pissed in the reservoir after a hard night of drinking and dropped a half second in the quarter :P

Seriously though you can run most washer fluids. You wanna watch out for the super soapy ones though.

 

I used %50 denatured alcohol and %50 distilled water. Be advised that if you are gonna be tuning with a wideband that displays A/F, actual a/f might be skewed when h2o/alky is spraying.

 

interested...

 

I am gonna put this order in right now if anyone wants in.

 

Made a large order last night and am already recieving orders today

A loca guy l with a Civic chose the 10 GPH nozzle with his basic kit. I am very curious to see what sort of power he is making and how this helps him.

 

The kits actually ship out of Anacortis, Wa, so depeding where you live it shouldn't take long at all. 10gph, sounds like hes probably got plans to run 100%methanol.

we should start a h2o/alky injection tuning/tips thread in fuel management forum if there isn't already.

I'm currently not at my home computer but ive got a h20/alky calculator that was a big help when tuning my setup. I also sent it to Jdavis, maybe he can post it as a link so anyone can have access to it.

 

how much does this affect the a/f readout? if by much how would you go about tuning it?

 

It depends on the specific gravity of the fuels your using, the stoichiometric a/f of the fuel, and the total percentage of alky/water to gasoline.

Just to give you a very very generalization of what the effects are, well according to my ------sheet calculator with an arbatrary a/f target of 12:1 displayed, a higher percentage of water:alky is gonna skew actual a/fs richer than displayed, while a higher percentage of alky is gonna skew actual a/fs leaner than displayed.

Take this with a grain of salt, but just by simply running a 50/50 mix actual a/fs when compared to wideband a/fs will be leaner by .1.

(eg.) wideband displays 12.5a/f
actual will be 12.4a/f

REMEMBER this is only according to this ------ sheet calculator, you should always proceed with caution and in small increments while checking plugs and other common sense things.

I tune with an AEM wideband/lambda gauge so i just keep it in Lambda. Lambda dosn't care what kind of fuel you use.

 

so its not going to be that dramatic like a whole number like 12.5 actually being 13.5
