Yes, the sugar will remain on the bottom of the tank like sand.
The Malibu might have a problem with the vapor canister. If the canister is clogged up the fuel tank will not vent right and the car will be hard to start.
Put a few gallons of fuel into the fuel tank then cycle the ignition switch from off to on several times pausing in the on position a few seconds each time. This will prime the fuel system. After several cycles, start the engine as you normally would and drive the car to a gas station and fill it up.
fuel pump in tank along with sending unit bad
on my 98, its under the wiper fluid tank
Don't drive in deep water. It means you got the electronics wet. Once they dry out it will start.
no it would either blow up, not start or ruin your engine
Sugar in the gas tank will not cause the engine to fail because sugar does not dissolve in gas. It will get pulled thru the gas line and into the fuel filter(s) and depending on how much sugar is in the tank, will plug the fuel filter sooner or later. This will cause the car to stall or not stay running. You can either replace the fuel filters until the sugar is gone or get the car to a mechanic and have the gas tank removed and flushed out. This is not a do-it-yourself project. You could also drive the car to the mechanic and then have the fuel filter replaced while they are flushing the gas tank.
Sugar in the petrol tank will quickly cause a car to break down. The sugar gums up fuel lines and injectors, disabling fuel delivery.
Sugar clogs the screen in the fuel pump pick-up. If it gets past that screen it will clog the fuel filter. Since sugar doesn't dissolve in gasoline, what stops the car is the clogging of the fuel. With enough sugar, the blockage can be instantaneous. The pummeling you will receive for putting sugar in the person's gas tank will follow shortly afterward.
Sugar sits on the bottom of the tank like sand unless you have some water in the tank also.
If you suspect that someone put sugar in the tank of your car, the best thing to do is to make an appointment to have your filters cleaned at a garage. Sugar in the tank will not disable your car, this is a common myth, but like pouring sand into someone's gas tank, it might cause your filters to need cleaning earlier.
Probably not. The sugar will sit on the bottom of the tank like sand. Yes he/she will, the car will stop running well, or at all. Why? the sugar dissolves into the gasoline, because its a solvent
One can is not going to do anything. Just fill the tank full, drive the car until that tank of fuel is gone and then change the fuel filter just to make sure. Any harmful sugar of other substances will be trapped in the filter. BTW, it is a myth that sugar will damage an automobile engine. It will always be trapped by the filter.
Plugs up the fuel filter if the sugar makes it that far.
No, sugar sits on the bottom of the fuel tank like sand unless there is some water present.
your car would not start or it would stall out quickly. You would need to take a fuel sample and check for small crystals of sugar in it. The sugar tends to stick to the insides of the pump, filter, and injectors.
start your car then drive
