Well I think I got some water in my fuel a little while back. Does anyone know how long it takes to normally pass water through. I have filled up 3 times with 93 pump gas, and ran several products through such as seafoam, heet drygas, octane boost, etc... and it still seems to be in there. I have talked to a hand full of people and they have all told me that water can take a long time to actually get fully out of the fuel system. Can anyone confirm this.. has anyone else had this problem.. and what kind of symptoms normally arise?

thanks

how do you get water in the tank?

just take the fuel line off and prime the system till it runs dry

prime it by removing the ignition fuse then hold the key in the start postion

Hey man.. thanks for the reply. I think I got some water in the gas from the pump if you go back a couple of pages under title " any Ideas" this is where I listed the problems that I have been having. Based on my conversations with differant people, they all said it sounded to them like I got some water from the gas station.
