I'm not sure what the right way to do it is, but I'd consider coming up with a vacuum pump and seal with a gauge. Each time you fill up, close it up and suck ALL the air out.

There's also a material you can soak an alcohol/water mixture in and all the water stays in the material. You just have to dry it out when your done, but it's infinitely reusable.
holy hell man!! u have to tell me where i can get this material at?

ive i drive to work everyday and have a little fun on the weekends i average out to a tank and a half which = 20 gal so a drum will be emptied in 2 1/2 weeks give or take. im not sure if thats long enough for this atmospheric water absorbtion action to really take a large enough tole on the e85 in the drum for my car to notice if i give it a slightly pulled back tune. whats ur opinion on that time frame?
