The system is sealed and the old "water vapor" concern is not there any longer.

I use Ultramar 91 octane , which in Quebec and some other provinces does not contain ethanol .I never did, but make sure the tank is full and there is no ethanol in the gas.
Question: There is a hole in the gas cap on the C5 at least. Same as was on my 2000 Camaro. It allows air in to equalize pressure as the volume of fuel in the tank decreases. Does that air not contain moisture? I'm sure it does. However, I suppose the moisture isn't as bad as the contaminating the parts with build up. Wise to go with an expert though. So from now on it's a quarter tank.A 1/4 tank has been recommended since the C5 and here is why :

Fortunately I have a friend who is a Corvette General Motors specialist and he gave me the solution. Here it is. Just get a 295 ml (10 oz) bottle of Chevron Techron Complete Fuel System Cleaner and add it to a full tank of gas. Voila - works like a miracle. Cleans the sender contacts and you don't have to pull the fuel tank and sender/pump assembly. Only problem is I don't know where to buy this stuff in Canada. Luckily for me Detroit is five minutes away across the Ambassador Bridge where you can buy Techron at Walmart. I do see it on Amazon for about $25 US but the packaging looks like it has been updated.
Maybe you could try the CTC cleaner but I do not know if this works, Perhaps some one on this forum has experience with a Canadian solution. I have no information on the C8.
Sea foam works! I used it as well.I bought Sea Foam. A lot of people swear by that. There are a lot of reputable names at C.T. from STP to Gumout and Lucas
