I ordered my last lot from Jennychem, but is there anywhere cheaper than them? the cost of the 205L drum is to high for me to pay out at once at the momnet, so would like to get 50L
my last lot of 25L from Jennychem cost

Thats a good price TBH.
I get/sell some 205l drums of MS1 Racing Methanol has a 99.85% minimum purity and a density of 0.791

I saw the info you sent over Ian, I would be very cautious and only buy trusted (and tested) methanol.
It is cheap enough as it is compared to octane booster. Dont risk the engine for the sake of a few quid.

but are they any test, or anything you can do to find out how good it is? from what i have read, this person has been supplying it for a few years to people for bio diesel

will do, but if it isnt any good, will it just run rich?
the bloke buys it in 1000L massive drums in steel cages, he told me the compainy name he gets it from, but can not remember it

If it is no good, it will det like a bastard. Methanol attracts water and it will not like it too much if poor quality.
Please keep an eye on it.
