According to some very quick searching, common gas is C8H18, and it produces H2O and CO2. So if you balance that equation you would have C8H18 + Heat + Oxygen >> 8(CO2) + 9(H2O). So that would give you 162.05 grams of H2O per 114.2 grams of Gas. The density of gas is ~.75 g/cm^3, which gives you 152.3 cm^3 of gas. Density of water is ~1 g/cm^3, which would give you 162.05 cm^3 of water. So those numbers would give you 1.07 gallon of water per 1 gallons of gas burned. I think that is right. So yes, 1 gallon of gas makes 1 gallon of water. But most of that would be burned off im sure.
