Hello, I'm a trucker about 7 years a go I was fueling up at the truck stop and decided to put some diesel additive for fuel treatment in my tank, well I droped the cap to the plastic bottle in the fuel tank. Oh did I have problems it took a month for the cap to begin to cause a big problem.

putting sugar into your gas tank will only turn rock hard if it did make it into the fuel system the filter will pick it clean. but if did get pass the filter it would not make it past the injector. on carburetor engines the same thing would happen but the sugar would bake and stay in the intake manifold. if you don't believe me get some gas and add sugar to it wait 1 min. and pour it out this is another old wise tail. leave the trucks alone and don't be asking questions the you will regreat .these people make their living out there and don't need any more problems.

Screwing up a car is one thing, because the driver usually leaves the car outside and is in the house.
Screwing around with an 18 wheeler is a whole nother story. The driver can be inside, and would probably not hesitate to put a load of shotgun pellets in your *** if you touched his truck.

Why would you do this? A man who is an owner-operator has enough costs to worry about. You truly have NO comprehension of how much it costs to buy and maintain one of those trucks. This is a stupid an juvenile act of foolishness because you are mad at someone, something like this would not just damage a vehicle like you would a car, but it would destroy the man or woman's life, chances are he cannot afford to replace his engine, and without the truck cannot afford to fix it or make money to pay on it. You are not talking about an innocent trick that's kids play, you are talking about completely ruining someones life.
If you still want to do this, here are 2 easy steps.
1) Buy a gun
2) End yourself
Just save the time. because if you try it, your gonna either get shot by the driver, or have the crap severely kicked out of you by him, then spend time in jail, after paying for any damage you did to his truck.

the sugar will melt and mix as foreign liquid with the gas.The engine does not burn the liquid thereby making noisy combustion. Empty and refill the gas tank, change gas filter and pumps out remaining gas from the carburator

Thats totally un - cool. If you have a problem with somebody, be a man and take it up with them. Dont resort to low life back door tactics.

you have put at least 25% gas in it before any real damage would happen.

try purchasing a diesel with your "hard" earned money and teach yourself.
