Title: K100
Post by: TLRam1 on November 30, 2017, 07:36:29 PM
In my water test with Seafoam, Star Brite/Star Tron, Berrymans none of these dissipated the water within the gas.

This product looks to work.

When the day comes and I get K100, I will rerun my own water test.

What started me testing the theory was Star Brite stated their product, and the salesman also, would dissipate water within the fuel. Not sure about the other two products, I would think Seafoam would state that, Berrymans I don't know. Anyway, none did.

I dislike Ethanol in gasoline immensely.  The one benefit, however, is that it will ameliorate a small amount of water.  I don't think any other product will do so.  Interesting article from marine fuel use summarizes the facts objectively, unlike some sites trying to sell fuel filters and additives:

Bottom line:  It is always advisable to keep tanks full for long term storage.  Ethanol does not change this advice.  Enough breathed water will still corrode the bottom of your tank, it just takes a bit more water if you have ethanol in the gas.

So what does that entail? Are going to be driving a K100 mini car around peddling this stuff in addition to you job, added duties and that is why you make the big bucks? lol

Has your boss heard about this, I guess he liked what he saw. K100 appears they have different formulas, I need to see which one to get when it comes time.

Another Marine Dealer had told him about it.. I don't think he ever watched the video I sent him.
From what I saw yesterday they have 4 formulas.. Gas, Diesel, Gas with stabilizer, Diesel with stabilizer

And NO, it means I will be riding around on BMW K100's to pick up parts with..

K100 was brought up before about 5 years ago....On the thread I did the experimental water test someone told us about his results with K100 with none of us picking up on it, our bad or he not being persistent enough about the product.

Forgot about this, started looking to see where I could get the K100 and realize I have access to it!

I have bottles of the Gas formula at my job.. Not cheap, but if you have a water/fuel issue, it may be cheaper than paying someone to pump your tank (Assuming it's not a bike that you can just drain)...

While looking I was thinking of asking if you had any then I noticed motorcycle dealers selling K100, bingo.

by the time you pay shipping, it can probably get it locally at the same price.. There is not much mark-up on it..

The problem would be finding it locally.

Mine came in, I will put it in gas to see if my results are the same from what I have seen from others.

Have you experimented with any Harry?

To me, it would only be worth the price if you knew (or at least suspected) you had actual water in your system..
In a boat, it is expensive to get a 30 gallon tank pumped.. If you could just add some of this stuff, it would be cheaper..
On a bike, IF you thought you were having a water issue, it is too easy to drain the tank and the carb bowls..

Terry - your signature states "My mama always told me never put off till tomorrow people you can kill today"

I say.. IF I had killed them when I wanted to, I'd be out by now!!!

Haha

Even on the bike if I can pour a 10-12 dollar bottle in the tank it is easier to me than pulling it and this is a gas treatment for storage I believe.
