I would recommend against it unless you are in a pinch, windsheild washer does have some detergent in it, best s to go to a hardware store and my a gallon of Methanol and mix with a gallon of distilled water!

If you need to use windsheild washer in a pinch make sure its the -40 degree one! and not summer washer fluid!

...perdy much, if you are gonna do it, you have to look for the one with the most alcohol percentage! its not a perminant thing, but if its all you have (its what i would do....thats why i suggested it)

You bet. Also, Devols Own caries a 49/51 mix that's supposed to be really good. That's the route I am going, since I can't find anything better than +32 where I am.

I should get mine on Monday. With my current mix I'm max at 21* timing and AITs at WOT about 109-115. I've actually gotten as high as 120. I'll let you know how the new juice goes. I also get some stutter in 4th gear WOT at about 4000-5000 rpms. I'm hoping that the Devils Own mix will help that as well. I may also try spraying earlier.
