Hey if someone were to put a bottle 750ml of water in my gas tank what would it do?

cause if it ****s up my car im gonna beat somone badly with the tire iron.

 

beat the **** out off them any way they ****ed with your car!!!

 

yea if they did, but the reason i asked this is to find out how i could tell if they did, cause someone else told me they did so i dont know for sure yet. BUT IF THEY DID IT IS OVER.

 

your car would run rough as hell for one thing. once you started sucking water.

 

well i know you can buy an additive for your fuel to remove water from the tank/engine,but i dont know what it is called.Put some of that in there to make sure.How much is 750ml in ounces?

 

750mL is three cups

 

Well the car is running great still after 3 days so it was prob a joke and didnt happen. 750ml is one of those small pop bottles that u get out of vending machines,

 

Water sinks in gas so it should be picked up by the fuel pump quickly. with that much soon as you started the car, you would already know. course if im wrong and it floats, keep your tank full.

 

Water is heavier than gas , so it will sink to the bottom.
3 cups is not very much , I dont think it is enough for the strainer to pick up in a 15 gallon tank. however you may have intermittent problems if it picks up a little at a time if the gas splashes around.
You can put a bottle of Dry Gas in the tank just to be on the safe side.

 

thanks for the info, hey were can i get "dry" gas? at any gas station?

 

Any auto parts store should carry it.
Or even Wal-Mart

 

Buy yourself a locking gas cap!

 

GOOD POINT, the cap.
Also
Hang out with more beautiful women who don't get angry at you as you leave in the morning, also!
Or as I do,
leave them smiling......

 

In highschool , there were some real jackasses , I've had a locking gas cap on my car sence I got it in 97 ! There not expensive at all . A good little investment , and gives ya peace of mind !

 

:sillylol: :sillylol: :sillylol:

 

Hehe, I could take off your locking gas cap with a pair of Channel Locks.

 

yea i just graded yesterday!, i think i will get a locking cap, last month some ****er wrote "muff" on my car, in jiffy marker (cause i was having this bet with three other ppl who could go without cutting there hair the longest) i punched him out and got my hands all bloody and my crazy buddy pissed in the kids gas tank and drew a dick on his windshield with jiffy marker! lol. and guess what, it was a mustang! lol. dont **** with the camaro

 

I assume you've done this in highschool . :sillylol:

 

No no. I don't f**k with other people's cars. I use this trick when jackasses bring their car in the shop and conveniently forget the key for the gas cap. (when they forget the door key is THE worst though)

 

LOL! Oh, Calicamaro, how do you actually take off the locked gas cap? Do you break it off? Just asking! Eric

 

Just like Wayne, I've had the locking gas cap - since January of '94. I had to replace it last year; the internal cam snapped.

 

Someone please describe an OEM locking gas cap to me?
I have a locking cap, yet, the cap key says nothing special, except "gas", not GM or ?

 

Yeah , thats really what I was thinking , ( you prabably have to do that sometimes sence you are a mechanic . I was just joking with ya man .....Bet that routine gets old though huh ? customers forgetting to give you the keys .

 

Did they make em for our cars in the 80s ? ...Mines aftermarket . I dont know what brand it is , i just picked it up from autozone .

 

Probably a generic company like Stant made them for GM.
Mine looks like a Stant product, but no name on it.
Curious.

 

Karl ,
Actually , I was just thinking about mine again , I think it might have a name on it somewhere . I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Stant . Stant makes such good quality products . Mine is still good after all these years.

 

i had a locking cap on there when i bought it, but the previous owner didn't give me a key so i bought a stant for like $12 that wau i could keep out the average joe from pulling those kinds of pranks on me.

its the ones like CaliCamaroRS that i worry about

 

Hey dont you love that clear coat peel on the roof? Looks just like my Bird. Dam GM crapy 80s paint job. I could of done better with spray paint.

Rest of the paint is great, I need a fake rag top. Wouldnt that look hooptie as heck.

 

yea, it has somthing to do with when u put the clear coat on

 

I always liked hitting the locking caps with Batt acid... then coming back 15 minutes later. You look at it wrong and it croumbles to pieces.

And No do not **** with a persons car unless they **** with...
1. Your car.
2. Your woman.
3. Any of your freinds above listed items.

If they do its free game. Lord forbid you have freinds like mine in H.S. that will actually kidnap your *** and take a 24V RIG Batt and jumper cables then commence to "pop" your nuts for messing with "my Fiance at the time". I really felt sorry for the poor guy...

Hell I stopped my freind from tearing the wings off a Yellow jacket then tapping it in the guys ear at least... I would not wish that on a enimy.. WHOO that would HURT...

yes I had some really good freinds in H.S.. Strange, but very loyal.

 

totally agree dude,the guy that i beat up had to go to the hospital and i almost didnt grad even though it wasnt even at school. nevver heard bout the wasp thing, harsh

 

the yellow jacket thing is a great idea though it is very harsh, but i give you props for being unique, thats for sure

 

You guys prabaly have some of those VAN NUYS cars . I have one myself ; but sence my car is white , bad paint does not show that bad on it . My roof is the same way though , you just dont knowtice it that much .In the 80s , not sure exactly which year , California put strict smog laws on gm's paint . This forced them to water down the paint alot . So you can thank your California State Legislators for that .

 

stupid government also messing things up!

Gee....
Where do I start.
For those that don't live here,
Let me give you an education.
I lived in Washington DC before I arrived out West in Dec 1980.
That Summer in DC (1980) was the SMOGGIEST EVER.
Imagine driving into/towards a building and never seeing it because of the pollution?
What Building?
Try Lincoln Memorial off of Key Bridge (I believe)
I move out to LA.
Guess what?
Pollution so bad, one day, I couldn't see past two blocks.
I get pollution sick (Ask CaliCamaro how it feels, lately), my eyes develope an injury from wearing contacts to much & not allowing eyes to breathe (taking a break with eyeglasses).
MY sinus's collaspe (Ask Fast RS how he feels lately).
I move to the beach to escape the pollution. I live there from 1983 to 2001.
BECAUSE OF THE GREAT STRIDES IN POLLUTION LAWS, I can
move to the Valley where the GM plant once was, I can see mountains MANY MORE DAYS THAN EVER BEFORE (not just Rose Parade Time, people!), I can exist out here, without slowly dying from lack of fresh air.
LA decreased it's pollution by 75%! since I moved here in December 1980.
What are the worst polluters in LA basin?
the desert (dust is kicked up by farming & movement-wind brings it to the LA basin-try EDWARDS Air Force Base as the BIGGEST LA Polluter!)
Tractor trailers (diesel fumes, imagine that!!)
Factories
lawn mowers
barbcues
paint evaporating.

That's the truth.
Paint has advanced a long way since those paint jobs, too.
YOU CAN ALSO BLAME THE SUN for being "Stronger" than it used to be.
Strong sun can cause paint to lift & curl.
My 1974 Corvette rear bumper is a perfect example what happens by mixing strong sun & poor paint prep or just poor paint.
My bumper, the original paint curls & lifts off the 1974 rear bumper cap.
Leaves a sticky feeling.
Wish I could leave the car, sit in the sun and all that old paint would lift & curl off!
Also blame "Acid Fog"
Know about Acid Rain?
What do you think happens with the fog?
Do yo wash your car after a strong fog has blanketed your car?
You should! That kills the clear coat, too.
GM just "reacted" to laws and had to keep production/profit up, overhead costs down. evntually, it cost to much to keep plant there.

Off soap box now.
But really this is VERY CLOSE to the actual truth.

 

that would suck to drive up to a building and not to be able to see it

 

Throwing out a few I forgot stuff back then.
These are old cars like close to 20 years now!!
how many cars you see daily driven thata are old with original paint jobs and not in a garage!

 

yea the pollution is alot better in LA now then back then, but to my eyes it is horrible, i live on Vancouver Island in Canada, What is pollution? lol, Clear all the time here, bright blue sky no bad smell, no yellow tint in the air, green trees everyware, fresh water (i can jump in the lake i live at and drink the water its so dang clean, fresh mountain streams constantly pouring in, yea its very nice here compared to anything iv seen in the USA, no offence or anything, but we are clean

 

Karl ,
Not knocking on California . No pun intended to you Cali people Just telling what happend .To bad they couldn't do something with all that pollution besides giving you guys all those stringent laws ..But , I guess thats the only way to solve it . AND your health is more inportant . BUT , however Karl , my paint on my car was messed up when it was only 7 years old . My whole back drivers side quarter panel is all cracked up , if it was not for my car being white , you would be able to see if far off ! I even had a few friends in highschool who worked at body shops tell me " thats defective paint on your car "

 

i was over in Cali during Christmas, and the air seamed fine, so i guesed its all fixed. I was near Sacremnto (Beale Air Force Base) and I saw a truck i could park my car under thats my kind of truck!!!!!!

that state is beautifull, too bad they have too harsh of emmsions laws or else i'd consider moving there

 

harsh laws
BIG DEAL
You only need find loop holes.
I did, that's why I fugured out my 2.8->3.4 swap boogie.
Wayne, the pollution laws....
let me offer this.
BACK WHEN THERE WERE JUST INDIANS HERE
Even then this basin was a pollution trap.
Fire smoke would linger over this LA basin area.
Mountains and air currents
One cannot win over Mother Nature.
So.. What do you do?
Close the gate to others here?
You wouldn't believe what I've seen leave/torn down since I've been here.
LA is NOT the only city affected by pollution.
At one time last year Huston was Number one in Pollution alert days.
Hell we even get it from CHINA, here, now. Wind current brings it over.
Yeah, we so lucky.
BUT THE FIRST DAY OF SUMMER REALLY BRINGS OUT THOSE SHORT SHORTS & GREAT LOOKING LADIES!!!!

Bad paint is just bad paint.
I know (I'll bet others, too) Fords, Chryslers, Foreign things all suffered in the 80's.
Oh-Oh Better get Macco!

MANY other places are just beautiful to live.
But try to make a living there.......

It's a tough trade off, but technology does help for the better some days!

 

Karl , I still wanna get out to Cali one of these days . Im ganna have to look you up ! For real , I will !

We have EXXON down here man , I know that helps us with our share of pollution ! Whats crazy is they make alot of gas down here but its gets so expensive down here when gas go's up . That makes sence huh ?

 

it still gets me every time i see karl talk about chicks

your 46 and married, but hey, it don't hurt to look

 

I'm not looking...
I observe.
MAN some days....
Serious, it's like they grow like weeds......
Some days, you just don't see a dog at all......
You should have seen the beaches/roller girls in Venice in the 80's (watch "Hunter" for a reminder!)
Man, I was HOOKED on "California Girls" since Brian Wilson (he wrote that at the age of 20!) introduced them to me in 1964.
I was 8.
Luckily, I eventually met him & thanked him.
Because....
My Wife is a California Girl!

Wayne,
what cracks me up is that there is an Arco refinery, literally across the street from the Arco Gas station.
You'd think their price would be the lowest (less travel for delivery...)
GET REAL!

 

sure

hahahaha, you would think, huh?

 

Stuart.
You haven't learned the hard way, as I did (she was a vivacious Red Head and I hurt her heart, that I truly cared for)
Ya gotta ONLY OBSERVE
You can't get CAUGHT looking.......
But when you are alone........just don't rear end the car in front of ya:duh:
My Wife knows I "flirt", all the time.
My 21 month old is picking that up, too!
My Wife sends me to "flirt" with the Waitresses for better service.
I send her out for "flirting" missions too.
One pickup food place, the guy likes her.
We get larger protions of take out that way

Just as an FYI,
I "flirt" with her, alot, still.
NEVER forget that detail..........
I love making my Wife's heart beat, the most....

 

Cars boys, cars. this aint no love relationship site, lets stick with cars,... unless u got pics of those Cali girls lol

 

MAN
You need to get out from under the hood!!!!!
Can't help it, but, I do love my Wife!

Go find some Girls in Short Shorts!
Impress them with how decent your ride is......
Make your own romance-dance!

It's SUMMER

Really want to see some California Girls?
I did once work in the Adult Video Industry.
Want a website of my old Girlfriend & her Friends?
Email me

 

OH , I wish they all could be California , Oh I wish they all could be California girls !!!!
