Can't comment on to much, but can state that the alcohol in modern ethanol fuel will attract water. The best way I know how to get water inside of a steel fuel tank is internal condensation. Seems as though the front tank may get fuel pulled from it more often than the rear tank.

The only way to prevent this type of condensation is to keep the tanks full when parked for extended periods of time.

I fuel up when we get home from a trip.
