With all the fuel filters in place, the chances of any of the sugar reaching the engine is slim. The sugar sits on the bottom of the tank like sand. This was a topic of discussion on the show "Myth Busters". They proved it to be harmless. I'm sure some people will argue the point.

What is the importance of alternator?

An alternator is the part of an automobile that generates the power to run the radio, headlights, speakers, and air conditioning as well as any other electronic component in the car while the engine is running. This is different from when the engine is not running. When the engine is not running, the 12 Volt car battery operates these electronics. Unfortunately, every battery will die eventually, so the alternator also recharges the battery while the engine is running. This is a slow process, though. But unless the battery is charged, the engine usually can't ever be started.

most electrical fuel pumps work that way. it prevents the engine from flooding. also when you run out of gas, you no longer have to crank the engine to get it started again. all you do is turn the ignition to the on and off position 5 or 6 times and the gas reaches the intake. once the engine is running, the fuel pump continues to run and feed fuel to the engine to keep it running. frank t ( a car nut )
