Bus Driver: Bought my first gallon of Methyl Hydrate close to 50 years ago and I fail to see the dangers. It's not safe to drink, but other than that it will do little damage to man or machine.
Most folks are surprised to find how little it takes to keep a fuel system running free in cold weather. I've used it and used a lot of it on both gas and diesel engines, never rebuilt a diesel under 10,000 hours. I can take you to several trucking companies buy MH by the drum and dump a cup in every 100 gallon fill up, during winter. In my SA, 130 or 140 I use a 20 cc shringe and 20cc will do a fill up on two tractors.
It works well on air brakes, it is lock deicer pure and is the ingrediant that keeps all windshield washer from freezing. How could it be dangerous, the way most windshield washer gets splashed around. If my windshield washer hasn't been used in awhile, I know the MH has evaporated from the washer tank, thus I just beef it up with pure MH.
My friend, it's riuculous the tales that folks in auto parts business tell about MH, and why wouldn't they, MH could eliminate half their winter snake oils on the shelf.
