Yup, works real well. A test tube with a 10% level line on it. Fill with
water to the 10% line, fill remainder with fuel
under test. Shake it up, and if the separation line is higher up the tube
that the original water separation line, the
water absorbed the alcohol adding to its volume. Works right now basically no
waiting...

I have not tried Jays Alka Seltzer method....


I tried the Alka Seltzer trick on some denatured alcohol -- no result.
It did not fizz!
