Found this washer fluid in Sears will it work with my Water Methenol kit from AEM if mixed with the yellow bottle of HEET?

Yes it will. I used to use that on my previous platform. Washer fluid and 2 bottles of HEET in a 1 gallon tank.

Look for the MSDS for it online. It will tell you how much Meth is in it.

"You can “spike” your Blue -20 Washer fluid to a 50% mixture by adding 3 12OZ yellow bottles of Heet® gas-line-antifreeze to every gallon of washer fluid."

It works but is a very expensive route to take. 100% meth from a fuel source should be $5/gal or less depending on how much they want to mark it up.

Emphasis on "depending on how much they want to mark it up". Some shops definitely recognize that its not that easy to find. Some just mark it up a bit and move it out. Also if youre buying prefilled cans from VP or similar youre paying a bunch for the can and the name. Ive only ever paid between $2/gal and $3/gal, depending on the price of oil. Current bulk market price of methanol if you were buying it by the truckload is under $1/gal, I paid $3/gal a couple months ago. Those $50 cans are the reason I didnt run meth for over 6 months while I looked for a new source near my new home.

just saying it was cheaper buying that 5 gallon can cause I was doing gallons of
washer fluid and heet bottles which was hitting my pockets, that 5 gallon can last me from July til the end of this month, and I go to the track alot and occasion drive like a a-hole one the street, we'll maybe alot....

That's insane. One of our local fuel suppliers (not a gas station - the place where the trucks that fill the gas stations go) has it for $1.85/gal right now. I have made a half dozen trips there with my own 5gal pails in the past few years and it's never been more than $2/gallon.
