I've been told one can use regular food coloring to dye fuel. How much is too much?
I've used it before in several colors.
I just added coloring till it got to what looked good....not sure there is a to much or not.
Not to worry.
I kinda figured, I just wanted to make sure. The methanol I get has a blue hue to it, and making a whole gallon of fuel in a clear jug I think I will dye it a little so I can tell the difference between my Car mix and my Airplane mix.

Thanks Dave.
