Even blue thread locker would make future disassembly more difficult than necessary. If threads truly need sealant as opposed to a locking agent, we'd use fuel-resistant RTV.

"Blue Hylomar" is fuel resistant and doesn't set hard

Removing ethanol is not terribly complicated, but it also lowers the octane rating of the remaining fuel. Seems like a lot of work for very little benefit, and results in rather expensive fuel. (Extra equipment + extra time + octane booster + tossing 5% of the original fuel)

If E0 was really important to me, I’d just go to a station that sells it, pay the shocking price and get on with life.
