Make my sauce more runny

Hi, i am new to making hot sauce but i have been experimenting for a while.
I have a problem, the final result of my sauce is just wat i want in taste but is kind of thick. How can i make it more runny without loosing the quality of the taste.

Here is what i do:

1/2 cup of vegatable oil
5- 6 habanero peppers
4-5 gloves of garlic
1 cup of water
2 table spoons of white vinagare
3/4 lime
1 t/s salt
basil leaves

thanx
 
I'd add lime or lemon juice and I'd probably run it through a blender or food processor.  You could add salt water perhaps instead of the lime or lemon juice but it depends if you're wanting it to be table ready or keeping it in the fridge.
 
Hmm. Never said what pepper it was in hab family but lime j. and water after blendering HARD again, and cook again, with lid ON, won't lose water too much and will probably maintain current taste. (Even if Greg's input still has me laughing!) Good luck!
