Default stolen fuel

Kapt Krunch brought forth on stone tablets:
Leave only 20 gallons or so in the tank but add octane booster to get it up
to about 200 octane. If it gets stolen and used it will damage the engine in
goes into. In the spring just fill the tank up and the octane level will go
down.

You are confused, Wilbur, as to what the octane rating of gasoline
means. Higher octane rating means that the gasoline is *less*
explosive, not more explosive.

Have a "dummy" fill cap going to a tank of gasoline mixed with styrofoam.
Let them try to run on that.


Now that would work.
