Let me put this one on you. Did you know that regular gas with no Alcohol or
additives has to be 6% water to start with !

Nope, didn't know that. Not sure I believe it since the water and gas are not
miscible and would just pool in a container. BTW, 6 percent of 20 gallons
would be a pint of water. That much in the bottom of your tank would probably
cause the car to not start and would likely ruin the gas filter.

Suggest that you put a gallon of fresh gas in a gallon jug. Tip it about 30
degrees so all the water will pool in a small area in the bottom and then
check after sitting for a day. No water? Put a teaspoon of water in and see
if you can see that pool? If you can, then don't believe the 6 percent water
in gas.

I see you have not burned well head drip gas stolen from the well heads and
burned in your truck or car. Well head and drip gas like this has no water in it
and burns pretty hot and will burn your valve out of your engine in a year or
so. So the hands had to put a jug of water dripping water into the carberator
while running to keep the cyclinder from burning too hot. Without the water the
gas will burn your engine up in just a short while.

And no they refinnerys don't just pour the water in the gas and hope it will
mix. they call this refinning the fuel. Now when the water drops out of the
fuel. It is called bad gas and will give you trouble tring to burn it without
the water in it. You need to check with a person that deals with the propertys
that gas has in it and find out about the water in it.
