With the gas here in upstate ny containing 10 percent ethanol, do you still need to use a product like HEET red bottle ? Would this be tossing good money out now that the ethanol is in the gas and being that its an alchol does it disperse the water ?

I see no need to add Heet or any other antifreeze to gas that contains ethanol. Heet is fundamentally methanol (1 carbon) and the Iso version is isopropanol (3 carbons). Ethanol is a two carbon alcohol. In fact, if you add it to gas with 10% ethanol, you can icrease the percentage alcohol beyond that and then you MIGHT be in an area where you could cause corrosion, etc. I had a few bottles in stock and am mixing it with some acetone and MEK to make cleaning solvent for parts.
