- How do you tell if you have water in your fuel tank? My car has recently
- started to "cutout" during steady driving. Here locally they have started
- using ethanol in the gas during the winter and I've heard of two potential
- problems, plugged fuel filters and water in your tank. Also, if the problem
- is water in the tank what is the recommended method for removal? I've read
- that you shouldn't use drying agents containing methanol.
