Patient14 0 Posted December 23, 2016 I know drinking fuel is not exactly reccomended if you are planning on living, but...I emptied the vessel and filled it with water...then drank and got sick. Is this intended or a bug? (I've done this several times...Only now got sick from it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(I've done this several times...Only now got sick from it) I believe it is a random chance to get sick and intended, you used to be fine doing it when jerry cans first came out. For what it's worth I've accidentally drank small amounts of gas and diesel siphoning over the years and I didn't get sick, just fuel tasting burps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GaryWalnuts 1680 Posted December 24, 2016 I've always used a single water purification tab when filling gasoline canisters with water and I haven't gotten sick from it. It might just be luck or it might be that they work to purify against residual gasoline. I can't be 100% sure but until the day I get sick from it I'm gonna say that it works.
