PAH Donating Members 361 Member For: 16y 4m 14d Gender: Male Posted 05/02/15 10:04 PM Share Posted 05/02/15 10:04 PM NORRS!I might mount my bottle under the drivers seat. "But Ossifer I am NOT drunk!! I've been breathing methanol fumes!" Watching the RBT TV program, they picked up a kid on red P Plates - he blew 0.02 or something similar. The kid swore blind he hadn't touched a drop. Turns out he'd been breathing the fumes off his mates. His reading dropped back to zero in 5 mins. So we need a brave guinea pig! But office!! I was sitting next to a LOT of drunk mates. Can you test me again in . . . 2 hours??PAH But Ossifer!! My methanol bottle blocked and I was trying to suck the line clear again! I guess I might have sucked too hard?? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/35425-watermethanol-injection/page/25/#findComment-1528182 Share on other sites More sharing options...

A serious question.For those already running injection, where have you mounted your methanol bottle? I'd like to mount it close to the engine to keep the line short.And if it's not too hard, any chance of a photo of your bottle location?PAH Edited 05/02/15 10:12 PM by PAH Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/35425-watermethanol-injection/page/25/#findComment-1528183 Share on other sites More sharing options...

These pics are from ray076's FG turbo. I has my setup to go in roughly the same place on my BA turbo but had the bottle facing the front of the car with the pump underneath it in the flat section being the headlight. For a neater finish I was going to make an alloy sheet box to cover it in Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/35425-watermethanol-injection/page/25/#findComment-1528799 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ApparentlyIs the valve (in guessing just a one way?) in the nozzle or just goes inline? Pretty sure it doesn't matter with any kit where the pump is mounted worth regards to the nozzle! I like the sound the exhaust makes with W/M inj (getting lazy now so will call it "wm" from now on). The popping and burbling with the odd blue flame...

Aquamist have the pump always on with the valve stopping and starting the flow. So it is always at max pressure. I can have the pump in boot and valve under the bonnet and not have to wait for lines all the way from boot to pressurise. For a conventional set up I think the pump needs to be close to jets Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/35425-watermethanol-injection/page/25/#findComment-1529611 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pump itself stops the water from draining back. I would hope that your pump then has some sort of recirculation as the pump would be under pressure with nothing keeping it cool otherwise (like an inline fuel pump gets fresh cold fuel continuously from the tank).
