Yep vouch for that....
Way back when we bought it by the gallons at local FLAP dealers for Winter months. Apparently if use in sufficient quantity it does mix with condensation water in the tank and allows is to burn. I tried to use rubbing alcohol form a drug store in a an alcohol lamp with a chemistry set and would not burned.... the bottle said 60 % alcohol..... I added methyl from the gallon bottle in the garage and it worked fine.
We also had to change spark plugs every Spring or at least clean and regapped the plugs until replacement 6 months later before Winter set in again.
I was told...... that ethyl has a greater affinity with water than methyl and can actually absorbe it from the air similar to standard brake fluid. Can't vouched for that,

ps...ETHYL is meant for human consumption... why waste it in your car????
