Default RE: Should I just convert to methanol??

Bill,

I hope to test run both the stove fuel/methanol/ether and stove fuel/methanol/acetone mixture sometime this week using the non-adjustable glow plug adapter and a Fox standard idle bar glow plug.

I have a question for you.

Were you able to get standard auto gasoline to mix with methanol? What I mean a mixture of 80% standard gasoline and 20% methanol without any other additives? Did this hold a solution over time?

It would be very helpful to myself and others if you could summarize your entire test results and post them here once again. I think this date is very important and may give some clues as to which mixture may work the best.

If possible could you also indicate the type of glow plug(s) used.

Of course I’m currently interest in Methanol since it is available to me, but all of your data would be helpful.

Thanks,

Poppy
