Until I get my 55 gallon drum of methanol next week, which windshield wiper fluid?

[GShail]

Installed Snow Performances Stage 3 Boost Cooler kit. Will not be able to get my 55 gallon drum of methanol until middle of next week. Until then, is there any particular windshield wiper fluid that works better than others? Is there any particular brand to stay away from? I have heard that some brands have glycerol content and that this is not desirable. I looked at a few bottles of WWF today and saw no mention of glycerol, glycerin, or glyca anything. Cheapest stuff was the Valuecraft brand at Autozone for 95 cents a gallon.



Oh and by the way, after the install feels like considerably more "grunt. " Can't wait to tow with it next week.

Bueller? . . . Bueller?

I've never heard of such a thing. Windshield wash to cool the boost?

otherwise known as water/methanol injection... that's all washer juice is...

GShail are you happy with your air bags? I am thinking about installing them on my 05 DRW. I added the spacer in front to level out truck and was thinking about the air bags in the back. Would they help keep the back from squatting while sled pulling? I use the truck at work and gross out at 30k+ weekly and thought they may help there to. I ran the washer fluid from Walmart when I played with it. Not sure on the brand. Good luck.

Oh yes the air bags are a must, I have just the basic setup. Can see a huge difference while towing.

You should be able to pick up almost pure methanol in gallons as "Air brake antifreeze" at any local truck stop or truck parts supplier/dealer. CRC and Power Service both make a good product.

Hmm, I never heard of water injection. I'll have to research it when it's slow at work.
