Got a  technical question.  Just spent $70 getting a $120 string trimmer  
repaired.  The problem was the ethanol in the gasoline had clogged up the  
carburetor.  Here in Florida we have up to 10% ethanol in the gas and you  cannot 
get any without the ethanol.  I was thinking that since alcohol is  more volitle 
than gasoline, I could leave a gallon of new gasoline exposed to  the 
atmosphere until 20% to 30% had evaporated to remove the  ethanol.

The question is, would this work to remove the ethanol or  would it only 
concentrate the non alcohol gunk more and make things  worse?  A gallon lasts me 
about 2 months so the additional cost is not  important.
