There are serious issues with methanol based additives. The issues are directly associated with plastic, rubber and composite (plastic containing) gaskets. Mixed into gasoline in small percentages this would not be serious. continuous use, or adding it as 5-10% of fuel would be a serious mistake. Ethanol however is not reactive to most plastic/rubber. The need for either may be irrelevant because many states require fuel distributors to add ethanol to fuel. Minnesota is working on legislation to require 20% in all gasoline in a few years. If your fuel is a blend you are in no need of dry gas at all. check with the supplier!
