Description should include the following:
- The use of anti-icing additives for some aircraft has been approved as a means of preventing problems with water and ice in AVGAS.
- Some laboratory and flight testing indicates that the use of hexylene glycol, certain methanol derivatives, and ethylene glycol mononethyl ether (EGME) in small concentrations inhibit fuel system icing. These tests indicate that the use of EGME at a maximum 0.15 percent by volume concentration substantially inhibits fuel system icing under most operating conditions.
