Is Dentured Alcohol corrosive like Methanol? The kit I have is suppose to be able to handle 100% Meth, and it recommended.
I think the Meth is going to slow the burn rate down, so more timing would be needed in order to maintain peak cylinder pressure at the optimum crank angle. The only problem is you wouldn't want to ever go into boost with a spray of Meth with more advance timing. Which is why I used the windshield washer tank, so the DIC will tell me when I am low. But you still have the chance of other malfunctions.
