Fuel Trouble h2o in gas tanks

[jerseydevil]

Is it me or did they put more ethanol in the gas these days and not tell the comsumer? Seems to me like everyone is having more and more trouble with water in the gas? I myself have been battling the dreaded fuel problems to no avail. Installed a Mercury water/separator in the lines, added Star-Tron as well as Stabil-stabilizer and still at about 1/2 to 3/4 full there's water in the tank! However. There is a trick that an "Old Salt" told me that seems to be working pretty good so far? With each fill up add about a pint (16oz) of the Coleman Fuel. You know the fuel that goes into camping equipment like stoves & lanterns. Some how the white gas/fuel mixes or atomizes with the water in the tank and helps it burn. Not sure about this whole process, but it seems to help? Has any one else heard about the Coleman Fuel trick before?

Never tried the coleman gas thing, but I do use startron in every tank.

George, have you tried draining your tank completely and starting over from scratch? take alook at your vent on the tank also to make sure it is not letting water in.

BTW, nice boat in your avatar.

I'll start form scratch and replace the gasket around the tank gauge as well as the cap too. Yeaht that "Old Boat in the back ground(avatar pic) belongs to some guy I just happen to know! Boat's not much on looks but the owner knows where the Rock Fish are. ;D
