Back in the 70's, I got a tank full of water contaminated gasoline in my Challenger 383 Magnum one day and it started running like crap. One of the mechanics on duty grabbed a quart bottle of methyl hydrate and poured it into my tank. Said it would absorb the water and help get it through the system. The car continued to run rough for about half a block and settled down OK for the entire tank load of gas. When I went back later and told him, he said the MH was the same stuff they used to use in a local bus garage to filter the bus air brake/line systems through to remove water. They had a set time for changing out the MH reservoirs in the buses. Maybe that would help with the water in gasoline today, though I am not sure about solving how quickly gasoline goes stale these days.
