If throwing alcohol into the tank is what caused the problem, how is throwing more alcohol in the tank going to fix it?

no ----, but 4 tec = bombardier



and why are you talking about it being fuel injected because its 4 stroke? and where did you talking about 4 tec even come from?

etec by evinrude

Fulfilling the need for speed. It's the combination of lightweight and high torque that make E-TEC accelerate faster and achieve higher top speeds than almost any other outboard in its class. 90° V6 with 3.3 liters of displacement for the ultimate in power and torque No maintenance for three years. No oil, no problem. Longer engine life. Cleanest engine in the world. Uses less fuel. Runs quiet. Full-throttle from day one. Less corrosion. Stay looking like new.

3.3l V6 2 smoker

What water?? Are you dense? Do you have any idea what a fuel dryer is and how it's supposed to work?

All of that aside, if there was any significant water in the 'shine, it wasn't good shine.

If it was good shine would they be so willing to dump it in their tank for fuel?

I know a drunken me is much more protective of alcohol :P

Water goes into solution and burns equally well with isopropanol, methanol, ethanol. Which one comes in the brightly colored plastic bottle at a steep markup is a decision based on cost engineering and not picking which alcohol is "better"

It's trash from running the tank dry, get off the anti-shine kick.
