A man in Michigan gets a finger stuck inside his vehicle's gas tank. It took about five hours for firefighters to free him, a rescue that included taking part of the tank.
What a freakin' moron. I bet this guy voted for Obama.

I nearly got caught the same way, though. The little flapper valve that admits the nozzle is spring loaded and is supposed to seal against vacuum or VOC emissions, and they DO act like a finger trap.
I was examining the seal and testing the flapper because I got an ODB code that said there was a vacuum leak at the filler.
Not as big a leak as that guy has NOW though..heehee.

Damn, with my luck, I would have finished off a couple cups of coffee about half an hour before it happened.

Same guy who tried to siphon gasoline from the motorhome but instead stuck the hose in the septic system?

LOL - I hear that. Sometimes one thinks that if it weren’t for bad luck, they’d have no luck at all.

Years ago a guy in South Carolina tried to use his vacuum cleaner to siphon gas out of his tank.
Boom. Man burned. Not killed though.
I think that he is now in charge of the Treasury Dept.

Obviously a retired union worker. I hope he gets the bill for the FD coming to his rescue.

Are you sure he wasn’t filling his tank with high test?

I guess it’s not possible to push the flap in with a finger on the other hand and remove the trapped finger?
