Re: Sugar in gas tank?
Sugar doesn't dissolve in gasoline. If it dissolves, it's dissolving as a result of H2O, not gasoline. Poor quality gasoline could have water in it.
Sugar, just like sand, in the tank will settle to the bottom. This is due to polarity and solubility properties of it [sugar].
Drop the tank, pour out its contents (the gasoline is still usable -- so filter it and reuse or if you don't wish to reuse don't be a twit and dump it in my well water soil please) and rinse out the tank with fresh gasoline and wipe down with a lint free rag.
Replace fuel PUMP filter (different from that in the engine bay) and if you really are anal, as I am, replace the fuel filter that is right before the fuel rail.
Not too bad for an ex-Navy idiot -- I suppose AP Chemistry in HS alone helped me on this one. :rollseyes:
