Since it takes 100% more volumn of methanol over gasoline in my race engine, at 
least it did for me, I can't see how only adding 15% gasoline will will only 
require only 15-20% volumn. Seems to me the number is reversed. Maybe with the 
electonics and lean burn it's possible. The News it's very good about telling 
the public that their mileage will go down considerably and evaporation is also 
a factor.....J.D.

it takes 15-20% more volume to produce the same power---bottom line you need to 
be able to buy it for 25% less to make it a good $ deal...
