Hey, two quick questions.

1. Approximately how much fluid (in gallons) does the stock 2G(b) windshield reservoir hold?

2. Anyone know if it gets corroded by 100% methanol over time?

3. I use the reservoir for my methanol (obviously) but my windshield low-fluid light blinks on an off after a decent amount of use. When its actually near empty it'll stay solid. Anyone know why it blinks?
 
1. Around three pints, I'd guess. I don't know that I've ever seen the capacity spelled-out.
2. The plastic should be okay, the grommets will probably suffer.
3. The sensor's a float. The fluid sloshes. Same as the gas tank. You might be able to put a baffle around it, I've never had one apart to look at.
