Have you tried making your own (from website):

• Windshield Washer fluid: Only if it is blue in color and rated for -20 deg F. It should have no special additives. This means it is safe to use and made of about 30% methanol, 70% water. If it is another color or another temperature rating, do not use it. • You can “spike” your Blue -20 Washer fluid to a 50% mixture by adding 2 yellow bottles of Heet® gas-line-antifreeze to every gallon of washer fluid. • Mix your own: You just need to make sure the methanol is “neat” and contains no lubricants or other additives. We recommend a 50% mixture.

That is the beauty of the methanol kits...easy accessibility to the fluids...

just look for anyplace who sells race gass. I just go buy a gallon every so often. Just store it in a sealed container.

I just snagged a bottle of 20- windshield washer fluid and it works great. I was in Truckee when I found it but might be able to find some around here.

It's time for the country to do what Obama's own father did.
Abandon him.
