I would think that anyone going to Mexico, especially any remote areas,
would want o take a good sized funnel and a real  live shammi (sheep)
skin along through which to filter the fuel before putting it into the
van.  If the fuel itself is bad, not much you can do about that, but if
there is stuff in it, like trash and water, the shammi is the only thing
I can think of that can separate it out - especially the water - and
still allow the fuel to pass through. I used to use those out in the
bush country back when I was a bush pilot in Alaska. Saved my butt on a
number of occasions.

Reards,
