tesco's watered down juice
Lol what a load of rubbish. Thats like saying "nightclubs water down stella". The beer comes directly from the brewery and is sealed in a keg which cant be opened unless your attatching it to a pump.
And as for "watering down fuel" how can you do this? Next time you put fuel in your car, add about a litre of water and see what happens then!
As dan pointed out, its just leftovers mixed with octane boosters. does exactly the same job.
Seriously do people not think about what they are typing?
Well actually, I do know that it *IS* possible to water down beer - you know those wand dispensers they have behind the bars, you know those things they use for coke, pepsi, lemonade and water that all come out of the same tap?
Well, the coke and lemonade etc. all comes from the factory, and is sealed and is.......wait for it......concentrated......and is watered down by a mixer feed before leaving the tap. I know of a certain pub a few years ago, that had an old mixer from the wand, and hooked it up to the beer pipes.... - that pint of stella you just orderd was watered down by 20% with carbonated water! Was only watered down on a friday and saturday night (busy time, crowded pub, and mostly allready drunk - nobody could tell the difference!)
Only reason I know this, is because I worked there for a short while.
As for the petrol - No, you wouldn't use actual water (though you may be interested to know that WATER **IS** found in supermarket fuel tanks! There were some tests done a while ago that proved it). To "water" down petol you would use a hydrocarbon base stock of poor quality - white spirit, parafin etc, or just the common "sludge" left over from the reforming processes for the crude oils.
All in all though, the fuel that the supermarkets sell is not watered down as such - it's just VERY p**s poor quality. It might come from the same base stock fuel - but you try running ANY engine on that stuff without the additives........not going to happen!
