One big advantage of running methanol is that too rich loses very little power (compared to gas).
What is occasionally described as "perfect" is the stoichiometric ratio, which is what proportions of air and fuel are needed for there to be none of either substance left over when combustion is complete. It's interesting to read, but has no practical application.


which would be 14.7:1.




All of the posts above yours were refering to methanol. 14.7 is stoic for gasoline which is much different than meth. Besides stoic is a lab experiment not a drag race. Like Poly said "it has no practical application". You'll find 440jim's numbers far more useful.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
