LOL - yep! Been there, done that! I had a bug (volks) and we ran out of gas in nowhere land and there was this fancy dancy car parked beside us so... it tasted terrible, but it got us home!

Well we used to do it quite a lot years ago FS. But that was with paraffin. It was held in large tanks and it had to be siphoned down into a smaller one so that we could fill 5 gallon drums. Goodness I remember once my dad could not get it to run so I had a good suck and it must have been near the end of the pipe, I swallowed a fair mouthful. I remember I was belching and really feeling rough for quite a while.

I've heard of people doing that when they're stealing gas from cars...

Forget about wondering whether or not anyone has actually done that. I'd like to know if there is any other way of siphoning gas other than using your mouth . . .
