:) he he
don't all gas tanks like to collect water and gas treatment
will not always cure it. I've run MM oil in on a full tank
and still get the small water build up on cold mornings the
water from the tail pipe always makes me wonder whats up?
* thinking if i drain my tank and run a cleaner with it
cure the water drip, I see most cars in the morning with the
same deal as mine. ohh sometime I'll even see a sporty car
on the HWY dripping water from the tail pipe after the jump
on it in front of me I just smile, one thing forsure is that
i know after warmup the water drip goes away on our van. because this 4 banger runs warm..

have a humpy day
Joe
