Default Methanol lubrication additive

Do you suppose something like this would be useful or helpful? Possibly to help prevent corrosion?

Somebody hurry up and try this.

Just a thought.

We use it in all our dragsters that run on Alcohol, great product. I see no reason why it would not work as a little more protection with a FI meth injection. It burns clean.

not sure it would be needed, but it will do just fine and might be helpful to stabilize the brew.

how about the super stuff that designed for alchy injection, I think it might be better.

Majority of injection system pumps cannot handle petroleum products.

Careful.

Pumps are chemical pumps. Sometimes lubes create issues with internals. Your fuel has plenty of oil present. Additional lube is not needed.

Failures I have seen have been from those playing chemist's
