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.

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

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.

Now that would work.

Octane booster is only good for five points, or so. Triptane has a
rating of 170 when blended with tetraethyl lead. That is as high as it
gets. Propane is 100, methanol and ethanol about 110 as is toluene.
Acetone is over 100. So called low lead 100 avgas is 115 and is the
highest you can buy from a pump. The closest small town gas station
has racing gas during the season, but I don't know how it rates. There
will be a quiz.
