84supra Regular Location: myrrhee Registered: March 2004	Re: Nitrous and Methanol Wed, 05 May 2004 11:59 I had a quick look and cant find where I got the 1.6 from, I may even be thinking of ethanol, which is slightly heavier and has more power per unit volume. It is always safer to run a rich fuel mix with nitrous and then wind the fuel back to obtain the correct ratio to avoid leaning out. Many pistons have melted as the result of to little fuel in the nitrous powered engines, so start with big jets! Another idea I had for fine tuning the methanol is to set your approximate jet size, run high pressure and a mechanical pressure regulator off one of those old Mercedes Benz fuel injected straight 6cyl things to regulate the pressure. (they sit up near the fuel rail and have 3 pipes, one in and two out, and a 10mm adjuster bolt with 12mm lock nut, grab one next time your at a self-serve wreckers. I think they run a 100psi electric fuel pump to!) I don't know how well any rubber components will hold up with methanol so it would be a good idea to run petrol through it at the end of each meet and store it like that. I would love to hear how this thing goes if you do end up trying this set up out! it should be awesome! P.S. You can siphon the methanol out of the 205 litre drum on the ute into another one in your shed I've done it before. [Report message to a moderator]
