Yeah i know, methanol is the preferred alcohol, it even adds some energy (power) problem here is it is very very expensive, only cheapish alcohol is E85 and then you gotta remove the gasoline after blending it with water.... only other solution is washer fluid wich also is ethanol here and quite expensive
My though was that they maybe also used the vacuum for the automatic gearbox but they did not, it seems to be only EGR wich is nice
