At the behest of one of the investigators at Practical Sailor Magazine, who were testing the H2Out vent line filters, I purposely left my tank with fuel in it (partial fill) for two winters. I never noted any visually quantifiable change in color of the H2Out beads. I have now gone back to an empty tank each winter even with the H2Out filter.
I know it’s not very realistic for most boaters to empty a tank in the winter. For me, with a sailboat, I also did this with my commercial lobster boats, it was a no brainer and is actually quite easy. For many boat owners this will require a fuel pump and pick up that can reach the lowest part of the tank as well as a place to use or get rid of the fuel that came out. The oil fill fitting for our homes heating system is just feet from our stored boat and is able to be pumped directly from the boat into the 275 gallon oil tank, so for me this is a very easy task.
EDIT 5/18/14: About two months ago I set it on some 2″ thick stone pavers as some surmised that the tank needs to remain cool as it would if in the belly of a boat at ocean temp. Up here in Maine, when hauled out for the winter, there is no “ocean temp” but I placed it on the “slower to change temperature” stone pavers anyway to satisfy a few doubting boat forum members. Results = BONE DRY….
In order to make this as real world as possible I used a real boats fuel tank, a standard 5/8″ vent hose and vented it to the exterior. Forget jars or simulated tanks, when you have a real tank, why not use it. I also placed it as close to our actual boat as I could. here
From microbial contamination in ultra‐low sulfur diesel to Phase Separation in ethanol blended gasoline, fuel storage facilities at boatyards and marinas are charged with finding ways to continually improve upon fuel quality while containing or reducing costs.
Fueltec Systems provides a custom tailored maintenance solution for cleaning diesel, and ethanol blended gasoline fuel tanks:
In boats fueled by ethanol blended gasoline, water is present, leading to Phase Separation. When gasoline containing Ethanol comes in contact with water—either liquid or in the form of humidity—the ethanol will absorb some or all of that water. When it reaches a saturation point the ethanol and water will Phase Separate, actually coming out of solution and forming distinct layers on the fuel tank bottom. The result could lower the octane to a point that the engine will not run; or if the alcohol/water mixture is ingested into the engine, sever damage can occur.
Emergency boats and standby generator sets running diesel fuel are at a great risk for bacterial contamination as they often go through extended intervals of disuse. Without proper maintenance, sitting water can become a veritable petri dish in your fuel tank. here
