How do you fill up the gas tank?

falconfixer · 11-08-2014, 02:25 PM

I did a search and nothing came up but my question is how do you guys go about filling the gas tank up?

The background for this question arises from my meaningful time on the shitter as I contemplate how to get my fat *** in and out of the car to, I wish someone would show me how to drive an automatic to, is it safe to drive at high rates of speed with no tires (I'll still have rims).

So, do you guys spit on the gas nozzle first and slide it in? Jam a finger down the gashole digging for some kind of vapor to lube it up prior to filling up? Gingerly place the tip of the nozzle in while coaxing the rear quarter? Something new and exciting I've never heard of?

Whichever method you choose to do, be sure to use diesel. It's good for an easy +50 whp, and eliminates the dreaded fuel starve.

Thus the problem with diesel is the nozzle is too big. I guess I could use a torch to cut out some metal around the fill hole. Maybe I'll do a write-up

U tie a kite on a copper string to ur gas tank, during hurricane season to get that 1.21Giga-Watts worth of power ;D

I would first start pumping the gas as I lift it off the machine so I ensure any contaminant or lower grade gas gets flushed out. I hold it down as I unscrew the lid and then also spray around the entrance for the same reason as above. I then proceed to ensure the nozzle is in and continue filling. Usually around this time I spark a cigarette. Once it clicks I know I should probably put another 4L or so. Even if it spills out or overfill it's still getting most of it in I think. I proceed to toss the butt down and drive off in a trail of flames

That is completely unnecessary, you just stand approximately 5 feet and 2 inches from the tank hole and release. You better hope you have great aim.

Everyone knows you have to use the funnel you use for oil changes.

Iv always gone for the pour the gas all over your car and let it soak into the gas tank method. Never have to wash or wax your car again!

You know they make stuff for the nozzle for it to slip in easier. It's called Nozzle-eze. It's like anal-eze.
