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 |

Little Orange took a drink but he shall drink no more for what he thought was H2O was H2SO4. Sorry that's the only chemistry I know.  ------------- 1957 WD45 dad's first AC 1968 one-seventy 1956 F40 Ferguson |

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