Antifreeze in gas tank?

I doubt it. I think you have water in your tank because it's no way how antifreeze can go in your tank unless you puuted it there. So if you have water in your tank, just buy stuff which is called dry gas. And everytime when you fill your tank add required quantity. To get rid of water in your tank you will need to do that at least 3 times, it depends on how much of water you have.

What happens if you put antifreeze in a gas tank?

The first, and most likely result will be that the engine won't run any farther than the fuel in the lines will carry it, antifreeze will not burn so once it hits the injectors the engine will stop. In the tank it will pool at the bottom as it is denser than the fuel and will be the only thing the fuel pump will pick up. The problem is that you will then need to clean the entire fuel system. If you did not start the car, you need to remove the tank and drain everything out of it. Wash it inside with gas. Reinstall the tank, add couple bottles of dry gas, fill up the tank. Start the car. You might have to use dry gas more than once, if there is any moisture trapped within the tank (drying will not work because antifreeze takes forever to evaporate).

How do you drain water in the fuel in a gmc suburban?

Have you tried using gas line antifreeze? That will help to remove some of the water in the gas. The best way to make certain all the water is out of the tank is to siphon the gas out, let the tank air out and re-fill the tank with gas from a station you know does not have water in the gas.

Gas tank location on 2000 silverado and how do you drain it got some water in gas so got to get it out?

Unless there is a ton of water in there then I would just add some gas line antifreeze and run the truck until the tank is almost empty. The only would be to either siphon with a pump (you will need to take the screen out of the filler pipe) or drop the tank. Look directly underneath the filler pipe on your truck for the gas tank. Again, if it was me I would just run it out.


What happens if you ran out of gas in a 1989 Ford Tempo?

other than getting a bit of either water and or slug in your injectors it should be nothing should happen... get a carb/fuel injector cleaner in your gas tank fill up the tank with gas 89 octane or better and drive. I also put GAS antifreeze in at about half a tank and run it almost empty to clean my tank out before and after the winter which is when water can best get into your gas tank.
