easiest & best way: find who ever put it in there and make them suck it out with a straw!!

If the engine was fired before the sugar was found to be in that gas tank, you're looking at more than just flushing the tank and pump.

Sounds remarkably like a FEMALE thing. "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."

I've found that an artificial sweetener such as 'Sweet and Low', makes for better tasting gasoline.

locking gas caps only provide a false sense of security, there still easy enough to get off.. well unless said female is a blond then I'd say your gas is safe.
