I started the following experiment yesterday at 7pm.
The E10 gas was fresh and streight from the pump and CRYSTAL CLEAR AS WATER. Put 1 drop of tap water in it at 7pm last nite. THis morning 11 am NO water ball is evident but the gas has turned a rather pale beer color.
Put another drop in at 11 am this morning and here is pics. The water drop as of noon is already beginning to flatten out to a something shaped more like a very short worm. I'll put in another drop as soon as the existing water droplet disperses as the first one did.
The water droplette drops thru the gas like a a piece of steel shot. I'm wondering how much water the E10 will absorb before it stops to absorb. We will see how murky the gas gets over the next week or so.
Pics taken at 11;30 Am today. Experiment started 7pm LAST nite.
Maybe a few others will try this experiment in their region just to confirm or dispute my findings. It's real ez and cheap to do. It would have to be cheap. I don't even have a quarter in my pocket to use as a size comparison for hte container.
