  Most rubbing alcohol is 70% isopropyl alchohol, and 30% water. I've never heard of 91% rubbing alcohol, but I suppose it could exist. That'd still be 9% water. Are you sure that you think it's a good idea to try to solve a problem with water in the fuel, by adding more water?
Rubbing alcohol works. I had the gas lines and carb freeze up on my f-100 while driving. finally got off the interstate just as it shut off. Anyway, a bottle of rubbing alcohol in the tank and in the bowl and a few hours later, all was well. But that was done on a carb'd 76 302 so I cannot take fault for anything done to a SFI engine.
EDIT: BTW, it froze up because the gas cap came off and I drove through at least 100 miles of rain before having to stop for more gas and realizing it. Not realizing that 20 miles later I would run into a winter storm that would shut down all of N Texas and have to spend the night in a gas station. I did spend the night at one of the girls' that worked there place that night.
