Re: what to use for alky injection Many guys run mixtures, and the mixture is *very* important.
I had good results with denatured alcohol. I was advised of a killer mixture of water, acetone, and denatured (?) alcohol.
Lots of guys are doing Methanol, but it seems to be pretty hard on components; pumps mainly.
