Park it 'til spring - we may have something by then.

You might want to ship your car to New Jersey so you can have some professional fuel island attendant fill it up for you.

LOL had too.... Back in the day we would get these little rectangular boxes called C rations. They came with food in them, some had things like a little chocolate called a John Wayne bar,,, tasted like exlax, other stuff was gross, meatballs and pork and beans together, some lima beans mixed with other stuff called slimy green MF and ham etc they all had a bad nickname usually. Any way experimenting over the years we found out that tuna fish, peanut butter, and pork and beans together could solve the gas crisis................. No one would listen to us though they just ran away screaming....... Then we won the war.......... Game Over.

Are we that big of wimps that it has gotten to the point where squeezing the trigger is way too much effort?

stick the gas cap in between the trigger and the guard. Works every time.

My test scores place me in the top 98% of my class, I attended a summer course at Columbia university this past summer and receive multiple college recruitment letters each month. No one has showed me how to get gas without holding the pump. That doesn't make me an idiot.

You started this thread, and by your own admission "I am an IDIOT", you asked for it. I was told once when tempted to start a thread to type it out in WORD, save it, and read it the next day to make sure I really want to start a thread and am prepared to deal with the consequences.

As an aside, I had a chuckle at your expense yesterday as I filled up my truck, and watched some woman try to pump gas into her car as her boyfriend sat in it....the tank was on the opposite side, and she drove around the island to fix it but it was still away from the pump....she was puzzled as to what to do. I realized at this moment that you aren't alone my friend.

Hello,
To remove the smell of gas from your car, clean out the car completely of anything that could have soaked up the smell.If you have a gas can in the trunk,carefully wash the outside of it,to remove any lingering gas.

That's simple--
After you get out of your car and light your cigarette simply push the lighter between the lever and handle..it'll only flow about 1/2 open but this might? give you enough time to use the restroom? And get another 6 pack? But remember to mash the cigarette out before getting back in the car, or you're car will stink!

Don't do the wallet or tennis ball thing..most places they'll steal your wallet and some places your tennis ball..
PS I think using the gas cap will void your warranty..
