Mythbusters

[V8 Killer]

Anyone watch that show? Just saw a rerun when they dumped sugar in the gas tank of an old cadillac or lincoln.It still ran,They shoved crap up the tailpipes and it fires it out in less than a second! They finally poured bleach in to the oil and the engine seized.Egg yolks also worked temporarily on cracked radiators.

Some cool ****!

Yeah I watch it. Poor buster (their crash test dummy)

As for the sugar in the tank, it will F up your engine. Just not imediatley. It will destroy fuel pumps and eventually injectors. That I know for sure. A buddy of mine in HS got sugar in the tank from his xGF. So he went through 2 or 3 fuel pumps, untill he finally broke down and had the gas tank drained/cleaned and replaced injectors. But the damage was already done it started smoking real bad too. (we think it affected the rings too) He eventually had to have the engine rebuilt.

sugar cubes is what kills the engine,because just normal sugar sinks to the bottem,where as the sugar cube floats
