i don't suppose you know of an available top oil that is alcohol soluble ? Castor oil is and has some interesting properties but at 1$/oz i do not care to go to the 10-20% that i would like in this mix
Sorry, I don't , the only oil I ever ran across which is water soluble was machine cutting oil , which i doubt would be any help .
On similar note back in the late 70's early 80's I did use water injection on various vehicles with decent results .These were all carb and distributor type ignition . I was able to advance ignition timing and keep engine happy from pinging with results of slightly better response an mpg .
