Why do you think there is water in the ethanol that gas stations sell?

But when there is more than 3% or 4% water in the ethanol, it won't mix with gasoline. So a strong shot of ethanol will absorb water in your gas tank, but if there's too much water, the resulting solution won't mix with the gas. And gas/ethanol mixtures that pick up too much water will separate the gas and the ethanol. Or so I've read. Hold on, non-gasohol gasoline doesn't absorb water. Gasohol with shall we say, dry ethanol, can absorb some water. Isn't that exactly what it says above? Clair says .63 oz of water will mix with 128 oz of E10 gasohol. Okay, still thinking .63 oz into 12.8 oz of ethanol. 4.+% . Okay, I got it, you got it. It was past my bed time last night.
