Mechanic In A Bottle Update/Test

[RIGIDONE]

I didn't see any Engine Energy at Home Depot. They had the Ethanl shield and Mech in bottle. Where do you pick it up Rigidone?

pm sent

Rigidone sent you a pm.

 

[RIGIDONE]

yep just replied to it.. to all you other guys.. you wont find Engine Energy in any of the box stores like TSC or Home Depot.. those stores are only allowed to carry the 4oz bottles or smaller of MIB and ethanol shield.. your best bet is to call a small engine dealer in your area or use the "find a dealer" search on B3C's website.. sorry.. the company i work for full time (i mow lawns part time) also sells it but we are not a site sponsor so i dont want to get in trouble with the mods by saying the companies name and buy it from us.. Excell Motorsports sells it too!!!!!

condensation of fuel tank

so sunday i go out in my garage, it was 60deg in syracuse .. i look at my sled and my fuel tank is sweating..so my fuel was colder than the air outside.. so the opposite will happen when its cold out and you pull up to the gas station and get warmer fuel out of the pump because the fuel is stored deep under ground.. that condensation will build on the inside of your tank.. as you can see its quite a bit of condensation.. it can also happen if you were out riding on a cold day and you pull your sled in a heated garage.. so all you guys that say you cant get water in your tank unless you pour it in is totally false.. im glad i have my fuel treated!!!!!!

 

[Sled Dog]

Yea but your tank on that scenario is exposed to air outside the tank which has lots of humidity much tougher for it to get inside the tank. Not saying it will not happen just not so much. That said though any moisture inside the tank is not good and its best to treat your fuel.

 

[RIGIDONE]

i agree, as i stated it was 60deg and it was definitely humid out as all of our snow was melting.. i just thought it was a good example for showing condensation on a fuel tank.. i wasnt trying to mislead anyone..All it takes to creates phase separation is .5% water by volume per gallon. That means just .6 ounces (a tablespoon) of water will cause phase separation. All of this is at 70 degrees Fahrenheit at sea level. The colder it is the less water is needed. Even in the dead of winter, there is humidity in the air that the ethanol can absorb.
