Very quickly, but I can PDF what I have and send it. The two sections that are short are a layout of the tank components, not to vital, and the ECU hookup, somewhat important. Everything else about running the jet etc is there. I do have some of the ECU info, but wanted to clarify it before it went out to the masses.

Do we need to sign for the package?

Noone is usually home at my apartment during the day, and my company hates when I send personal items here.... =\

Finally picked up a 5 gallon pail of 99.99% methanol from ERC. $3.25 / gallon - whooo baby. I'm gonna try 75/25 in a couple of days (still have some fluid left in the original tank).

That's what we like to see, the good stuff. ERC is a good place.

Yay enjoy!

Careful pouring it, it will spill everywhere. I actually have a 4 cup glass measuring cup that I pour it into first, then pour it into the Aquamist tank using a large funnel.

Thanks! I actually bought a plastic drum pump while I was at ERC. I'm not really sure if I can leave the pump attached to the pail or if I should remove it after I'm done and cap the pail each time. Anyone know?

I have some unused 25 oz food grade plastic cups with a spout that I was going to use to mix the methanol and water (fill meth to 20 oz line, and water to 25 oz for roughly 75%...I know it's rough...like my martinis....ok cue the jokes). Should that be ok?

Cap it. You'll see why once you see how quickly methanol evaporates Wink

I got my kit today in the mail. Here are a few pics of my tank:

Nice killerfox! At 44% IDC and my driving style, the one gallon tank I have is lasting me about 3 tanks of gas, and I avg about 1 tank per week. If I had your 2 gallon setup it'd be 6 weeks between water/meth fill-ups. I must drive like an old lady or something. Big Grin

Looking forward to more pics of the install. ~Chris
