Two stroke gas just has a little oil in it. A little won't hurt anything.

Sugar will clog the fuel pump, filter, and injectors if it gets that far. I'm not a fan of sugar, but if someone's stealing your gas cans, then gently caress them.

I try to live by a "don't gently caress with someone else's car" rule, but I've had to break that a time or two. Last time was years ago and over a bag of weed. Fucker shorted me half of a quarter, so I crawled under his car in the middle of the night and crimped his fuel line just a hair short of completely closed off. Just enough gas to start the car, not enough to keep running. Wonder how long it took him to figure out the problem. And if it was worth the $60 he shorted me in weed. gently caress that guy.

In a new-ish car, it probably won't get past the strainer in the pump.

That's a good choice. Splash a little gas in it to make it smell like gas.

Those pump filters have been around for ages, it's just a little metal mesh sock most of the time. But yeah, sugar getting past that isn't likely.

Anything with a particulate filter in the tank will stop the sugar from going anywhere. Most cars made in the last 15-20 years will have one. Sugar is also heavy and unlikely to get sucked up in the pump anyways. Diesel fuel will straight gently caress their poo poo as soon as it gets pulled into the lines because cars don't run on it. You could also do a water/gas mix to mess with them.

E: Doesn't diesel have dye in it to differentiate it visually from gas? Might throw a wrench in it. Nope, low sulfur diesel is clear, I was thinking of off-road diesel, which is red.

gently caress that guy, though. I stand by my decision to be a stupid vengeful stoner that doesn't like being ripped off.

My 1966 has a filter sock on it. poo poo's old tech. There's also going to be an inline filter somewhere in the system. Diesel will be more effective than sugar.

Don't be a dick and actually do this to someone's car...but I don't see any harm in having a gas can with a diesel/gasoline mix. :getin:

I mean it's not permanent but he will need to pay several hundred dollars in labor to drop the tank, dump it out, clean it, and fill it with clean gas and then run the fuel pump with the injectors out until it blows the diesel out of the system. Depending on how lovely the injectors are they might need to replace the injectors, which will cost the dude a couple hundred bucks in parts.

He may be able to get away by just dropping the tank and then cleaning it out and putting it back together and cranking it until it fires, but it won't be good for his starter at all.

When I was working on Bimmers, it cost some dude $1500 to drop the fuel tank in his M5. All to replace a 50 cent hose some mouse chewed through.

It's a BMW, dude. Gas stealer guy is probably driving a shitbox beater, and will find a buddy with a floor jack to drop the tank in exchange for some beers, IF he can figure out why his car isn't running.

I haven't seen one of those discs fail like that before. Interesting.

That was all of, I dunno, twenty seconds after I put it on. There's a little metal ring in the center with locking tabs; that ring is only connected to the disc itself by a handful of teeny tiny little studs poking partway through the disc. Of course, it's better for it to fail that way than the other way around... launching the disc off into space, or something fragile, or somebody's face.

There was probably a crack in the disk. I wonder if breaking and sliding down the bit is an intentional failure mode to avoid sending shrapnel. I caught a chunk of one of the old non-reinforced cutting wheels in the eyebrow once...that wasn't pleasant and got me to wear eyepro for a while.

Eyepro, dust mask, and welding gloves. For me, this tends to be underneath the car, so the mask is really there to keep nasty poo poo out of my mouth (hooray leaky valve cover gaskets).

Most of what I end up using it for is poo poo like cutting off a screw head or rounding off an edge on a 2x4 or something. If I'm getting in there to grind metal or something that's going to shower sparks for more than 2 seconds, or if I'm under it, I gear up. I'm lazy, not insane.
