does sugar in the gas tank really destroy a motor ? theres a camero at a local garage that threw a rod out the block, and there reasoning for this is sugar in the tank.. This car is owned by a middle aged man who apparently does not drive the car hard. How the garage came to the conclusion about the sugar is also unknown. personally, I cant see it, wouldnt the sugar in the tank just disolve ? just as it would in a glass of water ? and even if it didnt disolve, wouldnt the particles be to small to cause any damage and or be trapped by the fuel/oil filters ? and if it did pass the filters, I cant see there beeing some funky chemical reaction between gas and sugar to break something down. I always thought of this to be myth anyone have facts or scientific proof on this ?
burn sugar and see what it turns into. It will leave sludge in the combustion chamber and after a bit completely fuck up an engine. it takes more than a couple of packets, but enough sugar will kill a car.
I have always thought this to be a myth, most I can see it doing is clogging a fuel fliter. I thought their was a show done on it by Mythbusters. I will check later and post if link to the download if I can find it
myth busters did a special on this very question and the answer is no. bleach fuckes your engine up though o_0
or wait for winter and just use water. causes a different problem, but still a pain in the ass. ibpatsaysthiswontworkintexas
