I've tried a few methods over the years. I would purchase VP M-1 meth in five gallon containers and pour it (with a funnel) into empty spritzer bottles.. And from the spritzer bottles into the WW tank..

This was a pretty crappy method IMO as there was always some spillage.

I decided to try using one of the fuel containers for my RC cars. It's 1.25 gallons and has a huge fill hole on one end and a on/off type switch on the front (to prevent spillage).

You can hold the container completely sideways and it doesn't leak a drop until you press the button.. Pretty slick.



Just thought I'd share.

Damn... That's better than what I do...

I use Rubbermaid "water" containers to keep and pour methanol/water mixtures.

Yes it sucks for pouring but it's so nice to measure (thanks to measurement lines) an exact ratio of 50/50 water/methanol in the same container I use to pour.

Meh - too much work. Just run straight meth and dial down the gain on your meth controller.

I think I'll just continue to spill it. Cool container though.

Cool container... What brand? I have a hobbyshop close by...

I think one of the basic squeeze bottles for RC stuff would work too. It might take a little longer but they are cheap.









They hold 500ml.


EDIT: The whole idea is that there is no pouring involved. Stick the spout in the tank, squeeze it, let it fill up, squeeze it into the meth tank.

No-Spill. http://www.nospill.com/

Cost me $12.95 at the local RC shop.

I have that bottle exactly, but I wouldn't use it to fill my car with meth - it would take *forever*. I use that little guy for my Revo 3.3.

I just use a washer-fluid bottle. They hold meth just fine and are designed to pour somewhat without spilling and they're cheap.

This might sound stupid but i thought you could just use ww fluid? isnt that already a 50/50 mix or somthing like that?

I run straight meth. Washer fluid (some of them) is like ~25%

Run 100% methanol. I keep a 5 gal. container in the garage with a couple of polypropylene jugs... it lasts long enough that I don't mind the infrequent trip to get the good stuff instead of washer fluid.

ok so 100%. Where do you get it?

Go to VP fuels (what I use) website, or any other race fuel company, and email them your address and they will give you a list of distributers. The speed shop I use stocks it, but as long as they are a distributer they can order it if not in stock.

Thank you Sir...
