Real Gas

Don't have a real gas station around here. Is there a way to evaporate ethanol out of pump gas?

Thanks,
Gif Cool

YMMV...

But I've heard that phase separation causes some other issues:

Could do a phase separation, then run the resulting gas through a chamois for the final water straining... Be advised octane number will drop, however... Smile

I was told once that marinas still sell fuel without all the ethanol. I've never looked into it though.

Oh, and forgot to menton, stop at your local municipal airport -- they'll have 100LL, probably. Mine does, and pretty cheap.

Well, why didn't you say so!!!!

Power Mist in northern Jersey used to make some stuff called Tool Fuel. It was developed when someone died because a fireman's demo saw I believe it was, wouldn't start because the fuel was stale..... I guess it's like adding Stabil to the fuel, except if this is the only fuel you use, it will always be protected from going stale.
