Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Too bad he didn't have some way to ignite them without setting his own car on fire and / or blowing up the gas station. Oh, yeah! I have never seen the volume and stream of gas that strong, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 In California or any place that has them just hold onto the rubber exhaust gas tube around the nozzle and force it back to make the switch then spray away. You betcha! It works! It just takes two hands. I doused two drunks this way that wanted to fight with me. I am pretty sure they thought I was someone else. This was 30 years ago. Nozzles still work the same today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think those things work like that... most still do in Mi , depending on the station allot of times when I’m filling gas cans I can’t completely open the nozzle or gas will splash back out of the can . Busy stations usually have the pump pressure cranked up to move more customers through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 One thing that kind of makes me think that maybe @Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984may be right is that gasoline nozzle sure can shoot the gas a fair distance. I can recall 3 times in my life where I sprayed gas from a nozzle. The one I mentioned above and once when a locked nozzle popped out of the gas tube on my car and fell and another when I was really ticked off (long story) and I inadvertently squeezed the trigger on the nozzle when putting it back in the pump. Each time the gas came out in a stream like from a water hose without a spray nozzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that in the rural areas the smog equipment requirements are different, and I think you don't have to get your vehicle smogged every other year.

Circa 1968, two drunks in a convertible looking for a fight at 2am. Several gallons of gas right in the face of the drunk in the passenger seat did the trick.
