1 gal washer fluid bottle as meth tank?

Washer fluid bottle is obviously meant to store a water methanol mixture in it for some time, has anyone actually just tapped one to use for a meth tank itself? Thought that would be interesting, not sure how it would be secured though :)

Maybe tap the cap itself for the drain fitting, mount it upside down, and just swap bottles when low lol

The Alky Controls meth kit from Livernois uses the factory washer tank as the meth tank.  They give you adapter to replace the washer pump.

Would there be a pressure buildup issue with the jug during normal operation, as it is a non-vented system?  IDK how it is handled by the factor washer tank.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I tapped mine and just use washer fluid as my "meth mix"

I'm not talking about the factory washer fluid reservoir, I'm talking about some 200% sloppy s*** right here, using an actual 1 gallon washer fluid jug that the fluid comes in from the store. I'm not doing this, but I thought about it for a minute and thought it was an interesting idea, I figure its not being used for some reason but not sure what that reason is.

I'm sure you meant a vacuum build up, but yes, they all have to be vented.
