No problem, 'cept your fuel filter might get clogged.
Take your car to a mechanic and ask them to remove and clean your tank. Might cost $100-200.

Whatever you do, dont start the car.... have it towed to a service station that you trust. They will have to remove and clean out the gas tank.
If you started the car, you could have done serious and permanent damage. In any case, get it to a repair shop. Unless you are a mechanic, you cant fix this yourself. Good luck, and invest in a locking gas cap for the future.

This will damage the motor completely. It is not funny and it is illegal.
It will take a long time for the mechanic to get rid of it and you will be paying a lot just to get it running the right way again. Buy a lock to your gas cap.

sugar does not dissolve in gas. There's also a fine filter on the gas line itself in the tank so it won't be sucked in either.
