Bingo, and it takes a lot to clog the filter. Plain water is more of a nuisance.
would sugar water do more damage? dissolve and burn with residue in the motor
I'm only an amateur mechanic and a middling chemist, but I'd estimate the amount of sugar water required for the sugar component to have any significant effect on an engine would just keep it from running. Gasoline won't dissolve water and water is denser, so it'll settle on the bottom of the tank. A fuel line full of water will kill combustion pretty quick.
