ok, sure, everyone has heard of the whole "sugar in the gas tank trick", which ends up clogging your fuel filter, injectors/carburetors, etc., but what would happen if someone put more than just that in a tank? what if a person were to pour not only sugar, but some industrial pool tile cleaner, some 40:1 mix of 2 cycle engine oil and gas, and to top it off, some gatorade? we could, in essence, call this mix "hatorade", but what would a quart of this mix do to a vehicle if dumped in a gas tank?

 

I saw an episode of "mythbusters" on TLC or Discovery channel a couple weeks ago. These guys had an old V8 and they dumped sugar and just about anything else you could imagine in the tank. The motor kept running!!!! Even a bleech mixture of some sort. Sooner or later the engine would have died but I couldn't believe that it was running at all. The sugar in the tank is a busted myth according to them. I sure wouldn't want to try it in any of my cars

sugar caramelizes when subjected to heat, which happens in the combustion chamber. What it does it stick to the cylinder walls and toast piston rings.

 

Why mix all that, if you want to trash an engine just dump in a load of paradichlobenzine crystals (ground up mothballs) it'll over amp the engine and at times scatter parts.
