Two years of college chemistry does not a chemist make out of me, so let's see
if anybody has the answer to this one:

Until we get around to making gaskets and o-rings that will stand up to alcohol,
is there a cheap and easy way to chemically (or mechanically) take the alcohol
out of gasoline? Yeah, I know that we could use fractional distillation, but
that's a little beyond the average home kitty-litter filter process that I was
contemplating.

Thoughts?

shared these priceless pearls of wisdom:

-
-It seems to me if they can make the car engines stand up (more
-specifically the gaskets and O-rings) then they could do the same in
-aircraft systems.
