Should have got a valve stem core remover and let the air out slowly, then used an ice pick on the sidewalls of the tires... then rescrewthe valve cores. After that you take a nail punch 1-inch from the corner of any window and it spiderwebs in the second “depress”. If you wanted to kill the engine, its fine to shoot it if you are still crazy enough to discharge a weapon.

Thanks for the technical advice. Stored for later application.

You’ve done this before, haven’t you? ;-)

I’ve done the valve stem core removal in a younger day. I just threw the cores in the grass; I didn’t think they would find them.

Another trick is if they don’t have a locking gas cap, you open the cap. Then take a half of a five-pound bag of sugar, pour some around the cap, dump the rest of the bag on the ground under the gas cap, and leave. There isn’t actually any sugar in their gas tank.

But they don’t know that.

Too much effort. I remember from younger days, guys I knew would remove the valve stem letting the air out, then coat the valve stem with glue and reinsert it so it can't take air again. Whole wheel would have to be dismounted to have valve stem replaced. Do it to all four wheels and car would be immobilized.
