The thing is; even just a teaspoon of water with bind up all the alcohol in a tank of gas, pull it out of the mix and will go straight to the bottom of the tank. It is this raw alcohol without any oil mixed in it that will cause 2 stroke engine problems, maybe even an engine seize.xrdaddy said:I wonder how different the ethanol mix would be from, say straight gas with accumulated moisture from condensation in the tank?
