:musical_score:Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C’mon, fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
I can’t get enough.

I’d have the car towed (do not drive or start the engine) to a mechanic, and have them drain, flush, and clean out the fuel tank. Personally, I’d have them change the fuel filter too, if applicable.

Then I’d add a locking fuel cap, if available, so this doesn’t happen again.

Best of luck.

Did you start it yet?

Drain the tank in to jerry cans and give them some of the free gas.

For whatever it’s worth, many years ago, the Magliozzi brothers stated that they had never seen engine damage from that type of vandalism.

How do you know that? It’s actually not easy to do, what with the vapor systems on cars these days. And it doesn’t sound like it is actually very harmful.
