    That might work too. I'd still try the gas line anti-freeze though cuz its supposed to remove water, then fill up the tank and add octane booster if you want.
    Good Luck

    Gasline antifreeze is the best way to go.

    Gasline antifreeze is methyl alcohol (VERY bad for you to drink). The alcohol molecules attract water molecules and bind to them. The alcohol molecules then burn off in the combustion chamber, and the water turns to steam and leaves through the exhaust.

    Once apon a time a had an old 84 audi s4000 or what ever it's
    called, anyway I had a problem w/ water too. I found out it
    was getting in the distributer cap, sometimes water finds it's
    way up in there, because there is no gaurd on d.c. did you check that?Or like jeff type R said "try getting a new gas cap".....
