Well as i was the one draining the gas out into a funnel and i never daw a drop of water and i have fought this GAS problem for the last 15 years you can bet your bippy you can cause pistons to swell and when they do they will cause it to spit sputter back fire lose power and just plum quiet , now if she got hot enoug ht she will size the engine tight and will not turn over but after maybe 10 to 20 min. start wright back up sometimes they seem fine and sometimes they are toast . If they seem fine she still may not be and your first signs of it not being FINE is oh it seems to be using more oil , well yea the sleeves are scored along with the pistons and you may have some rings now stuck because of piston partials holding the rings in . Then other that have had this happen to them will start rapping knocking even a hard hammering . Those are the ones that are toast.IF it is a case of a light scoreing then ya can pop the head drop the pan and run a hone to clean it up and clean up the pistons and add a new set of ring and your good to go . And yea i know well i have been doing it this way for thirty year and never. Well lets just say you have been lucky . I can also tell ya this even in the War Dept's Durango the difference between the 87 and the 93 is a two to three MPG difference and it has a bit better power . Just like the mileage difference between the brands of gas there are two stations that get get around 14-15 with her normal driving and yes now that she has this new job all mileage and all gas used is written down . Out on the open road 15-16 and maybe 17 the vary best it has done and this was on the 93 before it took the twenty cents jump back when it was a dime more was 19.2 on a trip now says on th vary same trip over the same roads to and from the same place now the only thing that i can not control is the weather as to how bad the wind is blowing and from what way so now on the 87 it get 16-17 .
