Yeah, it's 10% "dry gas"! No water will ever collect in the tank, it'll
dissolve in the fuel and go out the tailpipe. Nice side effect. New hoses
are a good idea anyways.

It does seem though that even the newer hoses don't seem to last as long as
the old ones. Is that lower quality overall or the more corrosive fuel?
