I want to use it in my water injection. The guys in the states use washer fliud that has 50% methanol and 50% water with only a dye which makes it safe to use. They use it as it's easy to get and cheap to buy.

Try BMW. Ive seen a video of someone using a supersoaker as a flame thrower & it had a bottle of BMW windscreen washer fluid attached to it.

Just use Methylated Spirits, that's just methanol with a dye in it.
