Water In The Fuel

BARNABY55 · #1 07-15-2003, 08:07 PM

Has anyone ever uused a additive that really worked in the fuel system.? I see products that displace water so it can be burned...Any experiences?

I never have uses any of those additives to remove water. They say if you keep your tank full you would get any water in the tank, but I have a better idea. Tell your wife you need to take the boat out and run it (to get the water out) this weekend instead of doing those home projects she has been nagging you to do.

I support the one boat theory but using it 4 times more often.

with any boat I owned it is always topped off. HOWEVER, i bought a Wellcraft that the owner never used the built in tank. I topped it off only to find my racor full of milk when trying to run it. I had it pumped but the guy said there still would me a minor amount in the bottom. I have sold the boat and just want the new owner happy. West Marine has a product but i have no experience with the stuff

Barnaby!, head to your nearest tire kingdom store , and purchase 2 or 3 of their ttt110, its a "tune that tank" product from qmi out of orlando , this stuff was designed originaly for boats. also Disney uses it in their huge gasoline tanks . it kills algae and is the best water remover, atomizer for gas ever made.b4 i purchased my seacraft the vent valve was facing straight down and the tank and about 2 gallons of water in it, this stuff works great!

Barnaby-I get the tank freshen-up additive from boater's World to deal with water/crystalization of gas for around 10 bucks.
