Just because push fittings work on your Subaru doesn't mean squat here. And stop running 90/10 80/20 if you're going to use the windshield wiper reservoir.

Fire was on the driver's side...and probably calling him an idiot the day after his car catches fire for a different reason than you're stating is...maybe a bit over the top?

I agree though that using the WW reservoir combined with cheap equipment and high mixtures is a recipe for disaster, though. With such a low boiling point, having an already volatile liquid evaporating at an extremely fast rate is asking for a fire. I mean ask yourself this...would you be putting fuel in a tank like that and using cheap rubber tubing to pipe it in? Probably not.
