How do i blow an engine?

Question

Is there any thing that i could put into my fuel, to cause severe damage to my engine?

Answer 1

do it old school with a match

Answer 2

Yeah, there are a lot of things that'll blow the engine. The question is why would you want to do this? Somehow I think you're up to no good towards someone else. So figure it out for yourself.

Answer 3

No I doubt it, I think that's a wives tale, like the sugar. In 24 years I have yet to actually See it happen, but if you run it without oil, I guarantee that will do it.

Sugar in the oil? That might work, it will change the viscosity.

Answer 4

nitrous would do it. 0 rpm burst.

or you could add some bleach or sugar to the oil..

or even drain the oil and run it hard.

I'm not sure of anything that you could add to the gas that would ruin it. I saw mythbusters do bleach in oil. We even tried sugar in oil on my mazda which did some damage before we took it to the junk yard...lots of smoke and a shut down.

Answer 5

sugar, water, pee, anything that isn't fuel

another way to blow ur engine is drain ur engine oil then drive the car around

or stick ur car in neutral and rev ur engine past redline

Answer 6

I know how to get it to blow but my question is why?

Sounds like it's about out of warranty or you just bought it and don't like it or it's about to be repo'ed.

So I'll let you figure it out for yourself!

Answer 7

run out the oil, it wil sieze up. Why?

Answer 8

put your mouth over the exhaust & repeatedly inhale deeply........

Answer 9

Get on you knees.
