In Reply to: Water in gas tank. posted by Stephen Newell on June 05, 2018 at 19:59:13:
I have fixed a few gassers and diesels that had water in fuel, from stations with water in their tanks. Water sits on the bottom of fuel so it will get pumped out first, even if it's mixed in fuel the heavier water concentration will still be on the bottom. I simply disconnected the fuel line and turned the fuel pump on until clear fuel started coming out. After clear fuel is pumping out, top off the tank with good fuel a bottle or two of heat.
Get a clear glass jar and put a sample of the contaminated fuel in the jar. Cloudy fuel indicates water and the water might separate and settle to the bottom. Heat (alcohol) does not get rid of water, it allows the water to mix with the fuel and be ingested through the engine.

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
