User Manual

Water/Methanol Injection V22

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE REGARDING

METHANOL

AEM strongly recommends that users never exceed a 50% methanol concentration

when using any AEM Water/Methanol system or component.

All AEM water/methanol injection systems and components (pump, lines, fittings, filter, flow

sensor, tank, and nozzles) are 100% chemically compatible with methanol. However, for safety

reasons we strongly recommend that users never use more than a 50% methanol concentration

in our systems.

Methanol is a toxic and highly flammable chemical. 100% methanol ignites easily and burns

vigorously with an almost undetectable flame. Methanol can be absorbed through the skin, and

even small amounts can cause blindness or even death. Using this fluid at high pressures,

without dilution, in an under-hood environment with nylon lines and push-to-connect fittings is very

unsafe. The performance advantages of using greater than 50% methanol concentrations are

small, if they exist at all. However, the safety issues are very real and far outweigh any perceived

benefit of running high concentrations of methanol.

Note: AEM holds no responsibility for any engine damage or personal injury that

results from the misuse of this product, including but not limited to injury or death

caused by the mishandling of methanol.
