Please look at the "diffusion" keyword in the cpptraj section of the manual.
However, if by "80 methanol", you mean 80 methanol molecules as solvent, that
is not nearly enough. You would need several thousand solvent molecule in a
periodic simulation in order to study diffusional behavior. Note also that
you will need to either do an NVE simulation (following NTP equilibration) or
at least us a very weak coupling thermostat (ntt=1) in order to study
dynamical properites.
....hope this helps...dac
