Do you have a filter with a separation bowl? Unless you've got Lake
Superior in there, that will handle most residual traces of water from
a properly stored fuel tank. Best advice is to fill the tank up in the
fall, reducing the amount of exposed surface area inside the tank
where condensation could form.
