Sugar on gas tank?

That sucks but if you're gonna go and get it fixed why bother posting here? Lol just saying.

no javier, watch mythbusters once in a while, a little science never hurt anyone. they had so much sugar in a system it just choked the fuel supply. fresh fuel(clean tank) and all was fine. sugar did not destroy the car or have adverse reactions during the experiment other than the obvious displacement of an adequate fuel supply.

they concluded the what if factor was more harmful to a car owner than the actual sugar.

Sorry, but it's a fact Ford's blow more head-gaskets than any brand of car do to only four head bolts around each cylinder instead of five or six as other manufacturers do. Sugar in the fuel tank louses up the fuel system. Sugar doesn't blow head-gaskets.

Did the first mechanic who replaced the head-gaskets have the heads re-surfaced flat first?

Lmao dumb asz mechanic. Your coolant is leaking into the engine. It leaves white residue and smells sweet when burned. It also burns away the gaskets too.

Probably what happened was that you were low on coolant, overheated the engine(which destroyed the gasket), took it to a stupid mechanic, and now have a gasket problem again.

Wow, poor you.

Someone put sugar in my gas tank. Idk when this occurred but my temperature gauge was showing that my car was overheating so i just took the car to a mechanic. When he took a look at the head gasket and all those things he noticed their was a substance which he said it was sugar. Could sugar really make it that far? And can it cause a head gasket to go bad? Or was it just a coincidence that my car overheated and he found that sugar had be

He also cleaned the tank and removed the sugar. All this happened like 6 months ago. 6 months later same thing happened and i took my car to the ford dealer and they said I need to replace the gasket. Why could it fail twice in such a short time? Could sugar that was still in the tank caused this? Or was it that the other mechanic just didnt fix it right?

The first mechanic was a friend of my dad in mexico, so now im gonna get if fixed at the ford dealer.
