It does'nt spontaneously combust... not at normal ambient conditions..
Its flammable with a colourless flame..

when I tested % mixes a few years ago 30% meth would not ignite from ign source (flame) higher % did.

You may want to improve the water proofing on your pump in that location.
I see you have installed the same as I did mine, but the pumps are not weather proof and will seize after a seasons weather on it if not protected. A trimmed Dr Pepper bottle provided the plastic mac for it - lol

You're not wrong. 70% meth is flammable. And burns so hot, the flame is invisible.
But the chances of it actually catching fire are miniscule.

I also have the advantage of knowing that Graeme isn't looking to run 70% meth at all times. He has 50% meth screenwash and is just trying new things. I doubt he's going to be cleaning his windows with the 70% meth mix :D

Alls schweeeeeet then lol.

It's good to try new things otherwise we wouldn't progress.

The pump is more water proofed than the pictures show. Silicon on all the joints, a plastic shield ;), and a generous coating of waxoil

What are the long term effects of using meth injection on our engines? I have heard that FSi engines do not like biofuels such as methanol and should be avoided.
