Status: offline 		After I have finished flying for the day I will always return any unused fuel from the plane to the bottle as I have always done, but I got to thinking that this must contaminate the fuel in the bottle with residue and grime from the exhaust of the engine. I can't help but think that this must dilute or weaken the remaining fuel in the bottle. With only a quarter gallon left I noticed the color was much darker than my new gallon. Any comments either way on this.
