This same idea popped in my head today. Glad you was able to provide proof of concept. I wont be removing the trailer tire but instead try to get the tongue as high as i can so any potential water settles in the back part of the tank.

I have a Grady 192 tournament and always got water in my fuel. I changed the o-ring on the gas cap and the problem was solved.

Great video mate, if you have to do it again down the track sometime i think you can connect the little 12volt pump straight to the positive and negative cables of the battery charger and by pass the batteries.

Thank you for the fuel polishing rig. I make the old mistake again by fueling up from gas bar and launch the boat, outboard died very shortly.

Awesome Help! Can you please tell me what fuel pump you used, I just want to be safe and efficient and do what you did. Appreciate any help.

What brand/model of filter worked the best. What micron rating was the filter? Do you know what the flow rate of the fuel pump was in gallons per minute? Thanks

Great method!! Once you get most of it out, then add some Heet (red bottle) to the tank, and the remaining will burn off with use.

Thnx so much, I'm working part time on a boat and on the first day i was helping the skipper refill the fuel tanks but I think I left the gas tank open and water got in, this vid was so reassuring, I thought removing the water was gonna be expensive but thank god it could be done with just a pump and the filter, hopefully they don't drop me

The question would seem to be from the video, has is the water getting into the fuel tank? That was a lot of water in the filter and it was really thick looking?

10% ethanol gas from the station. As it sits in the tanks and outside temperatures go up and down, external air comes into the tanks via the tank vents. Water then precipitates out (condenses) and the ethanol absorbs it. As temps fluctuate, even a few degrees it begins to accumulate in the tank drop by drop. After a few million drops you get what he had here. Treat your gas and always try to use non-ethanol gas for boats.
