Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / General Car Topics / December 2004Lead got in my gas tank
My car says Unleaded Only. I have always used unleaded gas. Last week I went by my brother and he was drunk and getting ready for deer hunting. He was running around his land with a deer call and his rifle. He kept stopping at the shed for more beer and whisky. The next thing he was really drunk and was running around naked shooting at everything. He managed to shoot 3 holes in my car. One knocked out the windshield, another went thru the door, and the third went into my gas tank and all the gas ran out. I was real pissed but my brother has always been like this and we have all gotten used to it. I fixed the hole in the gas tank and door with ducktape. I dont really need the windshield so I just cleaned all busted glass off the seat and ducktaped a piece of plastic over the windshield. Anyhow, I am worried now. The car says unleaded only, and there is a lead bullet in the tank. Will this cause my car to explode or ruin my motor? I dont feel good about this.

As soon as your start it the lead will ruin the motor and the converter. ;) mike hunt > My car says Unleaded Only.

And he wouldn't have had a car he would have had a Dodge truck.

Anyhow, if you put an unloaded gun in your gas tank, the gun will absorb the lead bullet and your car will be safe to drive (errr, not exactly safe without a windshield), but it wont explode and the motor wont be ruined. Be sure to remove the gun once the bullet is absorbed, and beware, it's loaded. Everyone (except blonde women), will put a string on the gun so it's easy to pull it back out of the gas tank fill tube. ß©©ß ----- >My car says Unleaded Only.

You should remove the tank ASAP, tip the tank over, and pour the bullet out. Be sure the hole get's a very good and permanent repair or replacement. Nothing quite like having a leaking gas tank catch afire to REALLY wreck a car/driver. Dave Go Metric! >>My car says Unleaded Only.
