Hello Mike. You could run your gasoline vehicle on 15% methanol, BUT the methanol is quite aggressive and may cause corrosion in your fuel system quite rapidly. If your car is equipped with a carburettor, you should adjust the CO exhaust value, when running on methanol/gasoline, according to the stated min value by the manufacturer in order to avoid that the fuel/air mixture becomes too lean. If that is not possible, do not use the methanol for fuel. You will notice a clear increase in fuel consumption. Methanol has a clear tendency of forming acid compounds during engine warm-up. These compounds will attack the lubricating oil layers in your engine. You may expect twice the wear compared to running on pure gasoline (or even ethanol for that matter). Please let me know how you intend to proceed. Good luck ! Jan Jan Warnqvist AGERATEC AB
