How long does it take for water removal products to remove water from the fuel tank?

I added ISOHEAT to my 26 gallon tank on my Toyota Tundra. I thought I had moisture in the tank after it sat overnight with only 1/4 of a tank of gas, high humidity that night, lots of rain, and a temperature change. It has been two days and while drivability has gotten somewhat better ( no check engine codes now) it still stumbles a little immediately following start up, when the idle goes down even after the engine is already hot... i.e. stopping for gas and filling up and then restarting. I was getting code 300 multiple random misfires. None now. I replaced a few suspect vacuum lines to the EVAP canister and also the PCV valve. The fuel filter is 2 months old as are 3 out of 4 oxygen sensors and a Mass Air Flow Sensor.How long does it take for water removal products to remove water from the fuel tank?
Shouldn't take very long if it is moisture. Water is heavier than gasoline and will sit in the bottom of the tank and does not mix with the gas so it should get sucked out fairly quickly. Most water removal products are made from good old alcohol, it mixes with the water to help it burn.How long does it take for water removal products to remove water from the fuel tank?
