Great info, nicely done test.
Thanks

Yes, but if you had to run gasoline with 10 gallons of water in it through
the funnel, where does the water go?

I think it could in theory, but I have to assume these funnels are designed
to remove small amounts of water and contaminants from fuel and they'd clog
or fail to work right if there's a huge amount of water. Ethanol and water
are miscible -- they can blend in any proportion -- but if you don't us

If that's really the case, then de-ethanolized gasoline (or whatever you
want to call it) from a major brand might be a more reliable fuel than some
off-brands of non-ethanol gasoline. You are, of course, losing 1/10 of the
fuel you buy, but commercial gasoline is so much cheaper than aviation gas

Larry; ethanol cannot be separated from gas by funnels using "phase-change"
properties. The fuel that is de-alchololed with water is identical to other
fuels in the retail stream. The ethanol is added to each tanker truck as it is
filled for wholesale delivery, partly because it is too corrosive

Would you consider trying one more test? I've been wanting to do a test of
E-10 -- the standard gasoline today that has 10% ethanol -- to see if
"washing" it removes all harmful substances. It's well known that if you
thoroughly thorough mix E-10 and water, you wind up with all the ethanol in
