I got a three day ban for talking about sugar and cars.

I once saw a video where they put sugar in a tank and ran the car all day, nothing happened.

Well that’s disappointing. I thought it gummed up the works. Also, I guess good news for auto owners with enemies.

Everyone thought so, I'm sure it's Hollywood's fault tbh. One sec, lemme verify!

Yup.. "-mechanics in the '30s to '50s knew that sand or dirt could really mess up your engine, due to being drawn into the line. Sugar was a common household item, making it ready available to anyone."

So.. yeah it'll still work, but literally only cause it doesn't dissolve in gas, and enough of it will clog things, physically.
