    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Ethanol seperation tutorial

Interesting, but too much work. One of the comments sums it up for me

"You have now produced hazardous waste and will have to pay to properly dispose of the ethanol. I suggest you just purchase your fuel from a high through-put, top tier station (Shell, Texaco, CostCo, Chevron, etc.) and ride your bike often to not allow the fuel to set an absorb moisture from the air. If you have to let your bike set for an extended period of time use a fuel stabilizer like Sta-Bil Marine or SeaFoam, (I prefer SeaFoam) go for a short run to get the treated fuel through the system, top off the tank and park it. For all the time you take to make "ethanol free gas" you could be out riding."

I've been using Stabil marine (blue stuff) for many years in outboards with good luck. I use a maintenance dose in my bike maybe 50% of time to keep the ethanol gremlins at bay.It works for me!
 
Put it in the oil from your oil changes and take it to the recycle drum at your local auto parts place.

EDIT...since both water and ethanol evaporate why not just set the bucket outside and let nature reclaim it naturally??

I know I might catch some flack from this, but the use I would have for this byproduct would be to kill off the pesky blackberries that keep popping up all over my property. i'm just talking about pouring enough to kill the roots. those things are what I imagine Satan's pubic hairs to be like.
 
It's a non-issue. I have never had a problem with E10 gasoline in any vehicle. Motorcycle, car, truck, lawn mower, weed eater, or what have you. Why would I go to all of that trouble to cure a "problem" that doesn't exist?
 
I just buy ethanol-free gas at the Wawa in town. It's a whole lot less work :).
 
Some states dont have many ( if any ) ethanol free stations. We are blessed around here to have way too many to choose from.

I live within 15 miles of four places that sell ethanol-free gasoline. I tried a few tanks in the CTS-V, and there was no difference, not even at the drag strip.
 
I don't think they sell Ethanol gas here in southwest Michigan, or you have to go find a station that does.
