This may be a noob question - but why doesn't anyone just tap into the wind shield washer reservoir? Could easily put a bulkhead fitting on the cap and a pickup tube down into the reservoir. Once the tube is full of fluid, it would have zero issues drawing fluid. If you're worried about that, just mount the pump lower than the reservoir so it has some fluid head.

Advantages include:
No need to run line from front to rear of car
Existing tank, integrated into vehicle
Low level warning integrated into dash
Less volume of fluid in tubes

Disadvantages:
modify existing reservoir cap (easy to replace)
????

Am i missing something?

Highly explosive area to keep Methanol would be the number one reason.

Methonal tank works pretty good. The only issue I have with it is securing the premade hole to the battery nut.

Oh nice. You're controlling it with the Jb4?

Correct currently controlling it with JB4. Looking into the option of adding port injection through the intake manifold for it.

What do you figure the blue windshield washer fluid is made of?

isopropyl alcohol, distilled water and some have ethylene glycol to help prevent freezing
