Only problem with that is that the filter can catch alot of it and not really mess that much up.

Wouldn't the sugar dissolve? If it's dissolved, the filter wouldn't catch it and it would really mess up the cylinder when it fires. Would the sugar carmalize?

the sugar would caramelize if it made it to the cylinders but my buddys s-10 got sugar in the gas tank and it only made it to the filter. He just had to clean the lines tank and replace filter and it was ok.

Forget the sugar. Unscrew his oil filter until it is almost off. (half off will do) The truck will pump all of the oil out of the filter gap and burn the motor up....or so I've heard.

Then go to his house while he is at work and squirt a tube of crazy glue into his front and rear door keyholes. And then....well PM me if you need more.

I was just going to suggest the super glue in the locks trick. My friend had a lady at the medical center park next to him and she slammed her door right into the side of his truck. He saw it and couldn't believe it, so he put super glue in every key cylinder. The next day, he saw her car way across the parking lot with the back window busted out!

A shotgun will do, or you could cut his brake lines.

NBS? Oil Level sensor...

Sugar will work but only works well if its mixed well and the truck is driven so its in fuel rails - pump etc then the truck sits for a few days..

1 gallon of water will cause more trouble if the vehicle is driven a lot..

Lesson here? If this ever happens to you, you are injured! Your back, your neck, something is injured.. Then you will get your police report..

i just got back from the police station. my dad ran into a buddy of his who happens to be a accident investigator. i was called up to the police station to make a report. the officer wrote up everything for me to give to his insurance company. it says that he is at fault. he also slid me the **** heads address under the table telling me that i didnt know where that came from .

another sweet situation is that his insurance guy is a personal friend of my familys . hes also our insurance guy hahahahah. things are definately looking better for me but thats not to say it will all work out perfectly.

another great situation (isnt it great i have a buddy whos a bigwig at the shop that our insurance company uses. ill have my truck fixed in front of line, and will also have an extreemly inflated quote if everything works out ill have my truck fixed, mirrors painted, air dam painted and every minor defect taken care of along with a nice wad of money left over in my pocket

im not normally the one to try and f*ck someone but what he tried was complete bullshit. if he would have been a man and fessed up to his mistake i would have been completely happy with the minimal work to fix it. now im out to get him....i still plan on visiting the guys truck in a few months after the dust settles. he wont forget me
