We bought a used tractor that the tires are only half full on.
I have a drum of methanol, but I don't know what is in the tractor now.
Also what ratio on the methanol gets it to -20.
                                                  thanks in advance
If it ain't orange it ain't worth ownin'

About 41% by volume methanol gets you to -20F

I don't think there is any chemical reactivity, between the 2, if that is what you were concerned with...

If your methanol is 100% cut it 2 to 1 for about -25.
