> Can anyone confirm whether they use alcohol in their gas?
> 
You can check it (or any other gas) yourself with a simple test.
You will need a test tube, graduated cylinder, or any other
container where known volumes can be marked.  Fill the lower
half with water and the upper half with a gas sample.  Shake
the mixture for a minute and compare the volume gain of the
water.  Any alcohol in the gas will disolve out and into the
water.  The volume gain of the water equals the amount of alcohol
in the gas.
