Re. Ethanol Gas, There would be a messy but 
effective method of removing the Ethanol from 
pump gas. When checking the amount of Alcohol in 
the gas you can use a 100 ml. Flask filled with 
90 ml. mix then add 10 ml. of water. The water is 
miscible with the Alcohol and will form a 
distinct cloudy layer in the bottom of the flask 
or about 10 ml. of mixture. the remaining 90 ml 
of fluid in the top of the flask is regular gas. 
Has anyone thought of doing this in a larger 
scale such as a 5-10  gal. clear wine flask or 
something similar. The process would be the same 
with the only drawback being disposing of the 
Alcohol/water mix at the bottom after carefully 
siphoning off the straight gas from the top of 
the bottle. Time consuming, possibly dangerous 
and messy to be sure and the Gas Police may have 
some negative thoughts, but it would beat having 
to use the present Ethanol mix for a non-intended use in the old cars.

  "I'm only kidding", but it would work. Your 
spouse may have some concerns about using the 
bottle for home made wine in the future.

I do know that the straight gas is piped to 
storage facilities around the state and then the 
Ethanol is added at the tanks (there is a storage 
facility about 1 mile from my place). The Ethanol 
is not shipped from the refinery, only added 
later from a distiller supply made in another 
plant. We have three Ethanol plants within 20 
miles of my place that produce quite a volume of the stuff every year.

John Holst, Iowa 300K that has access to straight 
gas nearly everywhere (fortunately).
